Val du Charron Aphaea Red 2018

Notes of strawberries, red berries and cherries are prominent on the nose and the sweetness balances the structure of the wine and provides a lingering aftertaste of red fruits.

This fruit salad wine has a rich red colour and a full rounded taste.

in the cellar : Separate fermentation in stainless steel tanks ensured that each cultivar developed a unique component to add to this blend. Juice extraction and punch downs concentrated the aroma and tannin structures of the wines. Thirty-five percent of the wines making up the blend have been maturing on French oaks in Flexcubes for 6 months to add structure and body to the blend. Final blending and sweetening was done right before bottling.
