Asara The Bell Tower is an incredibly elegant and well rounded red wine in Bordeaux style. The flagship of the winery, created for the most demanding tastes, has an intense fragrance of cassis, fragrant tea leaves and subtle hints of menthol. On the palate intense aromas of black and red berries, combined with toasted aromas and ripe fruit. Fine acidity and well-balanced tannins provide a well-balanced taste.

Treatment in the cellar

The grapes for this noble wine were hand-picked in the early morning hours and transported in small baskets to the winery. The grapes were cooled down overnight to a temperature of 5°C, hand-sorted all over the bunch and then destemmed. First the berries were subjected to a 7-day cold swelling phase and then fermented at a controlled temperature of 24-28°C. After completion of malolactic fermentation in the tank, the wines were matured separately for 18 months in French barriques, of which 15% were new wood, 30% second and third wood and 55% 4-5 years old. Only the best barrels were blended after the 18 months of maturation, resulting in a wine of great elegance and intense complexity.
