Budureasca Noble 5 – Cuvée 2012

Vinification: The classic fermentation was used to make these wines with a minimum of 20 days fermentation on the skins. All five of the noble grape varieties we used in this blend were matured in oak barrels for no less than 12 months. Our winemaker selected only the best barrels to make Noble V. Each variety has its own unique characteristic which gives this wine it’s complexity and nobility. This blend took over five months to complete before our winemaker was satisfied with it.

Tasting notes: A beautiful dark ruby colour and strong aromas of plum and blackcurrant.This wine has a lot of personality with each variety trying to dominate each other giving this wine it’s unique characteristics. The oak gives this wine an extraordinary long finish and a good ageing potential.

Food pairing: Dishes based on duck, beef and lamb accompanied by fruit sauces.
