Product information "Alto Rouge 2018"
Alto Rouge flows into the glass in a dark ruby red and exudes a powerful bouquet of red berry fruit, pencil shavings and dark chocolate, followed by a hint of vanilla and fine oak spice. Thoroughly full-bodied, it presents appealing notes of ripe blackberries on the palate, followed by tobacco, chocolate, toasted notes and vanilla - the excellent tannin structure brings a lot of complexity and a wonderful storage potential.

Das Traubengut wurde handverlesen, woraufhin die unterschiedlichen Rebsorten separat bei einer kontrollierten Temperatur zwischen 25°C und 27°C in Tanks aus Edelstahl fermentierten. Der Wein reifte nach Abschluss der Gärung 18 Monate lang in Fässern aus französischer Eiche.
