STORY BEHIND THE WINE

Wine born from a climatically intense vintage, starting with the spring frost. Although the summer was dry with peaks of high temperatures, the vines did not suffer thanks to the winter water reserves and were able to grow regularly until reaching full phenolic ripeness. The harvest took place within the standard timeframe, from the second ten days of September to the first week of October, with grapes that were balanced both in their aromatic profile and structural elements. The aging process also followed the classic timing, two years in large barrels, resulting in a wine with soft and silky tannins on entry and savory notes on the finish.
