Grapes are harvested by hand in late September. After gently removing the pedicels and crushing, the grapes undergo maceration during fermentation for 15 days.Following fermentation and remontage, new wine is aged in oak barrels. This wine is aged for 20 months in small 225 litre French oak barrels; Seguin Moreau, Taransaud and Adour cooperages. After completing the aging process, \u00a0the wine is blended and the final barrels are selected.In the production of Punta Greca we want to take extra care of our wine in order to preserve its best properties. This is why we do not use filtration; rather, the wine is settled naturally before bottling. After being bottled, Punta Greca ages in bottles for another four months before being packed in wooden wine boxes and placed on the market.<\/p>\n
The wine is of a deep ruby color and quite thick.<\/p>\n
Very complex and pronounced aromas of excellent quality; notes of Griotte<\/em> pralines (chocolate and cherries in liqueur), blueberry, blackberry, and plum jam. Spicy notes of black pepper, cloves; notes of roasted cocoa and herbal notes of laurel and anise.<\/p>\n It is very warm and soft on the palate. A high degree of freshness and numerous ripe tannins maintain an excellent balance of wine flavors. The bitter aromas of cocoa beans and coffee reappear in teh aftertaste.<\/p>\n Serve in a Bordeaux glass with grilled bistecca alla fiorentina<\/em> and a demi-glace sauce with vegetables or Deer fillet in a game and forest fruit sauce and porcini mushrooms.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Merlot, red dry wine, 0.75l<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":4187,"template":"","meta":[],"yoast_head":"\n
