The attack is supple and generous, consistent with the Merlot signature. The Cabernet Sauvignon contributes an elegant tannic structure, freshness, with a hint of spice. The palate seduces with its velvety texture, juicy fruit, and excellent concentration. A well-balanced, appealing and structured wine.
Winter is characterized by rainfalls well above the thirty-year average and particularly mild temperatures, favoring an early and very even bud burst. The quite cool and rainy Spring slows down the vegetative cycle. Limited due to the cool temperatures, the sanitary pressure remains under control, thanks to the painstainking care of our team. Rather belated, flowering takes place under overall good conditions.
Temperatures finally rise in summer. The thermal amplitude of the second half of August favours the synthesis of aromas and polyphenols. Accelerated by rainfalls at the end of the month, veraison is very even. At the beginning of September, the qualitative potential is already very encouraging. The maturity is homogeneous, the tasting of the berries shows very aromatic grapes, present and elegant tannins and a beautiful balance between sugars and acidity, suggesting a harmonious and fruity vintage.
