Tannat signature as king red (~36%, only country where it dominates): powerful and fruity with notes of blackberry, plum, black cherry, cassis, liquorice, leather and spices, firm but locally polished tannins — fleshy fresh palate. Firm Cabernet Sauvignon and peppery Cabernet Franc in blends. Supple Merlot, round Chardonnay, zippy Albariño.
The word of the wine: Sorting
Action which consists in removing the bad grains, not ripe or affected by the rot. We often use vibrating sorting tables which, by shaking, make the impurities fall to the ground. In the case of sweet wines, we speak of harvesting by successive selections, in several passages, to select the very ripe grapes each time.
