Spec sheet
The wine
Even though it's the younger sibling of the family, Ferratus AO is a winning Tempranillo wine full of vitality and energy. A malolactic fermentation is carried out mainly in French and American oak barrels and then the wine is left to age for between ten and twelve months. The resulting wine has a Picota cherry colour with abundant shades of violet and an aroma brimming with nuances and complexity gained from its time in wood (tobacco, chocolate, vanilla). Ferratus AØ (pronounced as A-zero) is a rounded wine, with a contemporary and pioneering style. A powerful wine waiting to be discovered by you.
