VINTAGE NOTES
Winter 2021 was marked by mild temperatures and average rainfall.
Budbing occurred between the last week of March and the first week of
April. Spring continued with a return of cold weather that slowed the development
of the vegetation. May and June were warm and dry, allowing
the vines to recover from their initial delay. Ripening continued regularly,
and the harvest began the second week of September.

GIOVANNI NERI NOTES
Intense and deep red, the nose releases aromas of
small dark berries followed by blood orange, mint,
and a floral touch. On the palate, it is intense and balanced, fine
and elegant. The greatness of the 2021 vintage is evident in
nearly perfect tannin ripeness and a present but fully integrated acidity
, expressing itself with
a vibrant and refined finish.
