Nose
Intense nose with black fruits and sweet spices aromas.
Palate
Generous and full, the palate is dominated by black cherry and blueberry notes, and a hint of mocha. The finish, very fruity, is elegant and long.
Growing Conditions
The mild and particularly rainy winter, followed by a wet spring, created a lot of concern but turned out to be a decisive advantage for this vintage! Once the mildew problems had been eliminated, the soft warmth at the end of June provided very favorable conditions for the vineyard’s development. Throughout the sunny summer, the vines had good reserves and has tapped into rich soil. The regular and early flowering, followed by a more spread veraison allowed a homogeneous harvest which took place in the last days of August.
