Information about "Excelsior Cabernet Sauvignon 2023"

The Excelsior Cabernet Sauvignon 2023 exhibits a glorious dark plum color, offering an irresistible bouquet of ripe black currants, delicate herbal nuances, and gentle oak spices. Its well-integrated soft and ripe tannins beautifully harmonize with toasty notes and sweet fruit accents enhanced by a hint of Petit Verdot. The palate is smooth, culminating in a pleasing finish that solidifies its standing as a remarkable choice within its price segment.

Treatment in the cellar
Grapes were stress-grown through irrigation avoidance in summer heat, ensuring a low yield of concentrated berries. Handpicked with great care, they were destemmed upon arrival at the winery and fermented in stainless steel tanks, completing fermentation at controlled temperatures after seven days. Following that, 40% of the wine matured for nine months in a mix of French and American oak, while the remaining portion aged in steel.
