HARVEST 2022 was a regular year both in winter and spring; as in recent years, rainfall was scarce and never significant. The vines resisted well until the end of July, when the rains restored the soil's water balance. Production was below average, while quality significantly exceeded expectations thanks to gradual ripening driven by the temperature variations between day and night.
ALCOHOL CONTENT 13.5% vol. APPEARANCE: Ruby red color.
OLFACTORY SENSATIONS Hints of black cherry, iris, and subtle notes of violet.
TASTING SENSATIONS The soft tannins are balanced by a minerality derived from the gravelly rich soils in which its grapes grow.
