10C – 12C

Advent Sams is a wine made from 100% Carignan grapes affected by noble rot (Botrytis cinerea). In the Peneds region this unusual result can only be achieved in specific weather conditions, which makes this wine even more extraordinary. During harvest we only select the bunches that achieve the maximum concentration. Very long fermentation during 9 months in French oak barrels.

Tasting Note:
Elegance, subtlety, complexity and freshness are the hallmarks of this wine both on the nose and the palate.
