History

This wine was created especially for friends and members of the Territorio Luthier club to celebrate the 10th anniversary of the founding of the winery in 2008.

It is also the first red wine to be released on the market made in the new winery, which was inaugurated in 2018.

Made entirely in concrete tanks, with a higher percentage of new wood than usual in this winery.
