The bouquet of La Motte Millennium tells the story of the wine's production: raspberry (Merlot), a light herbaceousness (Cabernet Franc) and toffee caramel (oak) combine in this highly endowed wine to create a harmonious and stunning creation. Malbec and Petit Verdot provide a wonderful colour and warm spices in the wine. Exceptionally perfumed and aromatic with an earthy note of beetroot, juicy and concentrated nuances of ripe blueberries unfold on the palate, combined with a fresh play of acids and a delicious sweetness of toffee. Juicy and opulent, this red wine ends in a long, dry and finely cinnamony finish. Pure pleasure!

The grapes were harvested by hand and carefully sorted with groβer. The fermentation process for this wine took place at a temperature between 25°C and 30°C. The malolactic fermentation took place partially in the barrel. The different components for this Cuveé were matured separately for a period of 12 months in older 225l French oak barrels. After completion of the maturing process, the different wines were blended to the finished Cuveé.
