The wine
Acusp is a fresh wine, considering the altitude at which the vineyards are situated, as well as being floral and fruity; it also exhibits spicy notes from its ageing in barrel, and proves a fine wine for cellaring.
NOTE: This wine has been neither filtered nor stabilised and therefore precipitation may appear. We recommend decanting.
The full 100% of this wine has undergone malolactic fermentation in barrel.
