Puchang Bei Chun

Puchang Beichun 2018
Grape Variety : 100% Beichun
Fermentation: Aged 50% in tank and 50% in second wine barrels for 30 months before bottling. Unfiltered. Low sulphites.
Alcohol : 14.5 % vol

Tasting Notes : Luminous deep ruby-red. Perfumed aromas of black and red cherries, quinine, cocoa and licorice, with a violet undertone. Enters smooth and suave, then elegant and austere in the middle but with building creaminess to the sweet and silky flavours of dark cherry, smoky plum, sandalwood and sweet spices. The aftertaste is long, mouth-coating and round. This is excellent, somewhat reminiscent of an Amarone-styled wine that is very well balanced. Stainless-steel fermented, and aged in old oak (third fill) 500liter and 225-liter barrels for twelve months, then another eighteen months in bottle prior to going on sale.
