Vintage profile 2020
A vintage marked by a mild and rainy winter, followed by a balanced spring with excellent flowering and fruit set. The summer, warm but without excesses, allowed for slow and steady ripening, with strong diurnal temperature variations preserving aromas and acidity. Rainfall at the end of September provided freshness to the grapes. The October harvest yielded healthy, concentrated grapes with thick skins: the perfect base for a wine of great structure, longevity, and elegance.
