Harvest and year description

One week ahead of the usual (September 21), since mid-August there have been intense, abundant and frequent rains. Difficult year and only thanks to a careful and constant monitoring of the vineyards it was possible to save the harvest. The presence of the mistral also prevented the clusters from rotting on the plant before fruit ripening and the sandy soil prevented dangerous stagnation on the root system. The hard work, however, was rewarded by an extremely refined and balanced wine.

Vinification

Careful selection of grapes, hand-picked in small boxes. Peeling of the bunches and subsequent breey flesh. Fermentation in steel tanks at controlled temperatures 26-28 °C. Replacements and repeated delestages ensure a good extraction of aromatic and pigment components.

Refinement

Storage in stainless steel tanks at controlled temperature and then aging at least 6 months in the bottle. Production: 9000 bottle.

Tasting notes

Ruby red color. Rich and persistent, fruity bouquet with elegant balsamic notes of Mediterranean scrub typical of the production territory. Warm and savory with the presence of sublte and balanced tannins.

  • Recommended pairings: first and second meat, cured meats, cheeses, mushrooms
  • Serving temperature: 16-18° C
  • Alcohol conte: 13,5 %
  • Residual sugar: 1,10 g/l
  • Total acidity: 5,40 g/l
