2020 is a vintage of contrast. The winter was exceptionally rainy. Spring was hot and humid nearly tropical. Mildew really enjoyed it. The early flowering took\u00a0 place in variable way depending on the grapes\u2019 varieties, terroir and the current weather.
\nThen, just before summer, rain stopped and a dry and cool summer lasted till the veraison. From this time on, heat, more or less heavy, dominated the season. Thunderstorms in mid-august were necessary and allowed the vines to complete its growth cycle. An irregular flowering and extremely dry conditions reduced the yield in most of the situations.
\nHarvested early, the grapes were fully ripe and gave generous wine.<\/p>\n

Dark purple colour. Complex and expressive with refinement. The nose is pure with some coffee aromas, as well as floral touches. Vibrant, the fruit is juicy and crisp. the tannins are smooth, a delicate caress on the palate. Tense and precise finish.<\/p>\n

It’s a fine wine , give it some time to assert.[\/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space height=”52px”]<\/i><\/a><\/span>[vc_column_text]<\/p>\n
