IT'S ALL IN THE DETAILS

The 2015 vintage has seen high summer temperatures that fortunately have been mitigated by the abundant rains of June and August. The whole harvest time was accompanied by mild and sunny days, with no rainfall. This has favoured an important accumulation of sugars and colour in the grapes, which have arrived in the cellar completely healthy and intact. The September climate also supported a correct maturation of the skins and grape seeds and a high presence of extracts. The harvest lasted until September 29th. A year of great generosity and integrity.

The olfactory impact is of considerable aromatic intensity: it expands with notes of small, fully ripe red fruits, accompanied by clear balsamic and Mediterranean hints. In progression, typical mineral notes develop. The gustatory impact is austere, of remarkable freshness and of large volume. It develops in a balanced fusion between the broad minerality and the fine and enveloping tannins. Everything is found in the long final persistence that presages long life. Goes well with game, as e.g. local preparations of wild boar, roast, braised and stewed red meats, and medium aged cheese.
