Bodegas Roda, Cirsion
HK$ 1,620
In 1995 Bodega Roda discovered that some vines produced grapes whose flavor was very different to the one of the vines around them. They produced a sensation of fullness, of volume, with notes that were more alike to a wine than to a grape. Two years later, they made the first CIRSION, and tested that with a short aging, the wine reached a level of incredible silkiness and a fruit complexity out of the ordinary. Each vintage they walk through the vineyards looking for this curious natural peculiarity, and that’s how, one in a thousand, the CIRSION grapes are picked.

In French oak vats, with controlled temperature. Malolactic fermentation in French oak barrels

Huge volumen, full of nuances. The black fruits together with the blackness of the cocoa, with some balsamic notes and the freshness of the Graciano. The impeccable oak. The texture in the palate, a dream. Very long and fresh finish.
