55% Malbec and 45% Merlot. According to our organic and biodynamic practices, our wines are fermented with the indigenous yeasts from the vineyard. Our goal for this Cuvée Nature is to produce a natural wine, fruit-forward and easy to drink. We achieve it through an earlier harvest, shorter maceration and aging in steel tanks as well as an early bottling to preserve fruit aromas. To better reveal the quality and beauty of our Terroir, no additives nor oenological products nor sulphites are added throughout the whole wine-making process. At the bottling, we only add 30 ppm of sulphites to ensure that this beauty is delivered to your glass.
Tasting notes
The wine has notes of boysenberries and plums up front create a luscious, full bodied profile. Hints of white pepper bring some tannic structure to the wine while light notes of tart raspberries brings some acidity that allows it to stay light on the palate.
