Product information "Alto Rouge 2022"
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.

The grapes were hand-picked, after which the different varieties fermented separately at a controlled temperature between 25°C and 27°C in stainless steel tanks. The wine matured for 18 months in French oak barrels after fermentation was completed.
