Winemaker's notes:
The blend is with increased participation of Syrah. This makes the body more tightly compared to the 2011 harvest. The style of the wine is preserved. The grapes are carefully sorted by hand. The fermentation is on whole grains, juice contacts with the skins about 3 weeks.
Lactic fermentation and maturing are again in French barrels, as one third of them are first wine refueling. Oak is a combination of different woods and structure, which brings added complexity. Maturation in the barrels lasts nine months and a half.
