The vintage
Autumn rains compensating for a shortfall in rainfall, combined with mild temperatures at the start of the year, have fostered the development and resilience of grape bunches against a particularly hot and dry summer. The harvest began at full maturity with perfectly healthy grapes.
Terroir

Winemaking
Manual harvest at optimum maturity. Grapes are destemmed, crushed and fermented at controlled temperatures. Rack and return, as well as regular aeration of the must bring smooth & silky tannins.
Ageing
50% of the blend is aged 12 months in oak barrels.
