The wine region of Colorado
American Far West vineyard at extreme altitude (1,200-2,000 m), among the highest in North America. A dry continental climate with strong thermal swings signing tension and freshness. Firm Cabernet Sauvignon reds with signature notes of blackcurrant, black cherry, cedar and menthol, tight tannins. Round, fruity Merlot (plum, cocoa), peppery Cabernet Franc.
The word of the wine: Extraction
All the methods (pumping over, punching down) that allow the colour and tannins to be extracted from the grape skin during maceration, before fermentation begins. It is also possible to macerate after fermentation, but gently, so as not to extract the tannins from the seeds, which are greener. Because of its solvent power, alcohol favours extraction.
