The grapes used to make this wine are sourced from only the highest rated vineyards in the region, which are known for their steep slopes and schist soil. After harvesting, the grapes undergo a heavy extraction to create deeply colored and highly tannic wines. Grapes spirit is added to halt the fermentation to leave residual sugar in the wine. The sweet, fortified wine is then aged for two years in neutral oak prior to being bottled.
