The first five experiments didn't yield the desired results, but the sixth barrel revealed the exceptional quality the winemaker sought. This fortunate discovery, from the sixth barrel of the first harvest, not only gave this magnificent wine its name but also marked the beginning of its worldwide fame. The aging of six to eight months in wooden barrels has had a profound impact on the wine's development, resulting in a complexity and maturity rarely matched.
