Demi-muids are over two and a half times larger than our normal barrel, a barrique, and therefore give less oak to the wine, but still impart great clove, nutmeg and cinnamon spice to complement the fruit. We further enhance this spice compote with texture from 100% malolactic fermentation and lees stirring every 2 weeks for 6 months. Make sure you enjoy this wine with a chicken tagine, complete with its own spice compote.
