Pinea is an artisan wine, made “by hand” but with heart, with an origin sense, with respect for the terroir, but also to all the people involved in its preparation. Obtained from more than 30 years strains on 900 meters high soils in calcareous clay and with non-interventionist viticulture works that characterize our winery, the key lies in letting the grape speak at each step of the process.
Pinea is coupage and aging in new French oak barrels of fine grains and toasted medium to respect the shades of fruit during ageing.
Description
– Medium, bright ruby colour with slight fade of garnet highlighted by pinkish rim.
– Nose is balanced, with pronounced aromas of ripe strawberry, raspberry compote, and crushed cherries along with subtle tones of lavender, tobacco leaves and new leather complemented by delicate smoke, toffee, and vanilla aromas.
– Distinctively medium bodied. On the palate it reveals classy elegance and balance with intensity of dark berry fruit and well-integrated oak notes, racy acidity and silky tannins with a long, savoury finish. Surprisingly very ready to drink now and should continue to reveal more layers of complexity over the next several years.
