Product information "Raka Petit Verdot 2020"
The Raka Petit Verdot with its dark plum colour flows into the glass and immediately a fragrance of intense aromas of black cherries and juicy cranberries as well as fine notes of fragrant sage and violets emerges. Pleasantly fruity on the palate, this Petit Verdot presents itself with a tight tannin structure and fine nuances of hazelnut and fine oak spice. This Petit Verdot, a grape that is a pleasure to blend, is a wine in its own right with great class and identity. Its finish is marked by its stay in wooden barrels and finishes with a creamy note.

All the grapes were harvested by hand and sorted with great care while still in the vineyard. A second sorting of the berries took place in the winery before a pure yeast culture was added. The juice remained on the skin for 5 days and was pumped over 3-5 times a day. At the end of the fermentation process, the wine was removed from the yeast and transferred to a resting tank. The wine matured in 225 l French oak barrels (25% new wood).
