mehrere Informationen

With an intense and highly concentrated ruby red colour in the glass, the Holden Manz Big G exudes a true explosion of aromas, dominated by blackcurrant, mulberry, plum and dark chocolate, paired with a fine hint of vanilla and cigar box in the background. Spicy, fragrant notes of black pepper also make themselves felt on the nose. Full-bodied with a tight and ripe tannin structure and a well-balanced acidity. Wonderful taste nuances of dark fruit end in a long and pleasantly lingering finish. This text has been automatically translated.

Treatment in the cellar

The grapes for the Holden Manz Big G were hand-picked and with great care only the best grapes were selected for the further production process. Only the grapes from very specific vineyard plots were used for the production of the Big G. The different grape varieties were separately subjected to malolactic fermentation in 30% new French oak and 70% previously occupied oak. The wines then matured for 23 months in the same barrels, after which the best barrels were selected. The result is a full-bodied, well structured and wonderfully balanced Bordeaux blend.
