Description
Cooler than previous year, with abundant rainfall in Winter and Spring that caused a slight delay in flowering of the vines; temperatures above average in early July have favoured the recovery conditions and maturation continued gradually through, inline with the average seasonal temperatures in the months of August and September; excellent quality of the grapes, rich in aromatic substances and polyphenols with ideal values.
