Vintage 2019
The year is to be remembered for the heatwave that lasted until the end of June, with temperatures of up to 43 °C that especially affected the Carignan. A hot summer, but with showers that cooled off the vines. Optimal conditions continued through the end of August resulting in grapes that were concentrated and well balanced. Great quality with slightly lower yields.

“Bright clear, straw color. Aromatic intensity. It is marked by a meaty spring fruits with pits (peaches and nectarines) but above all with a note that remembers the fresh Florentine fennel. A Mediterranean wine without wood.”

Vintage 2020
Early year. The high temperatures caused the plants to begin their vegetative growth phase 2 to 3 weeks earlier than normal. This moving up of the cycle, combined with the intense spring rains and the high temperatures, generated the “perfect storm” for the development of mildew. A dry summer accelerated the ripening process, so that the harvest was begun a week before the usual time. The resulting grape was very high quality. One of the shortest harvested and the smallest yields in the last 10 years.
Elegance and complexity.
A strong, unique personality.

“It has ripe black fruit, aromatic Mediterranean herbs and generous spice and smoke with a graphite note. All of these reds reach 15% alcohol and are powerful and full-bodied, made to last. Warmer vintages tend to have a softer texture and gentle acidity with round tannins and a long, lingering finish.”

Vintage is marked by average and maximum temperatures above values of the last 10 years, as well as very low rainfall regime. However is in these conditions when our vineyards and grapes have shown their incredible capacity not only to survive but also to give a small quantity with very high quality.

“It is quite spicy, but the floral violet character of the variety is noticeable. 2017 was one of the earliest and lowest yielding vintages in recent times, and the wine has concentration and ripeness, but also balance and elegance. It is vibrant and has bright flavor along with great freshness. This will still improve with more time in bottle.”

Early vintage. As a result of high temperatures, the plants started their vegetative growth between 2 and 3 weeks earlier than usual. This advance of the cycle, together with the intense spring rains and the high temperatures, generated the “perfect storm” for the development of Mildew fungus. A dry summer sped up the ripening process, so the harvest started a week earlier than usual. Healthy grapes were high quality with lower yields.
