Palatable and aromatic dessert wine. Sweetish red berry fruit. Soft on the palate, a very small amount of carbon dioxide and a subtle sweetness. The finish is slightly dry yet juicy.

Vinification
After the grapes have been picked and crushed, the juice stays on the skins for around 15 days at a low temperature (approx. 5°C) without fermenting. This long maceration time promotes the extraction of the grape aromas and brings forth a richly coloured must. Once the must has been drawn off the mash, the alcoholic fermentation takes place at a controlled temperature of around 18°C. An abrupt temperature drop (down to 0°C) stops the fermentation and thus prevents all the sugar from converting into alcohol. The wine rests in stainless steel tanks at a low temperature until it is bottled.
