The grapes for CV, Curriculum Vitae come from very old vines which, year on year, surpass expectations. From north-facing parcels, around 85 years old, a field blend is produced, foot-trodden before fermentation, 50% in lagares 50% in stainless steel vats. Thereafter the ageing is for 22 months in 75% new French oak, 25% one year old. Jet plum to rim, intensely coloured, this is a very serious glassful, dark and earthy on the nose with dark chocolate and vanilla notes. Heady, ripe, red and black fruit, more towards the dark spectrum, this is as aromatic on the palate, silky and supple with pepper and mineral complements and an earthy component which adds gravitas - long, layered mocha fruit finish, reminiscent of black cherry gateau.
