Its name derives from the 18% alcohol content! The late, manual harvest of Bonarda grapes, ensures these fruits a higher sugary and aromatic concentration After harvesting, the grapes undergo a process of de-stemming and soft pressing, then a skin maceration that lasts 6-7 days at a controlled temperature of around 28-30°C. A slow fermentation guarantees this alcohol level.
The red here is ruby and deep. On the nose, it releases pleasant lively aromas of cherry, black fig, carob, cinnamon and plum sauce, all combined with subtle notes of green pepper, chocolate and crushed gravel. On the palate, this wine has a long persistence with intense tannin and a sweet final touch of vanilla.
