Vintage
The 2016 vintage, which was marked by low rainfall in the winter and lower average temperatures than in previous years, was delayed by a fortnight compared to the average of recent years. A vintage with a remarkable bouquet and very distinct taste on the palate, which enhances an excellent varietal character.
Harvest
By hand, at full ripening from the second week of September.
Vinification and Ageing
Soft pressing, static decanting of the musts and slow fermentation in choice oak barriques.
On the lees in barriques for at least 12 months.
Since June 2018, in the bottle at controlled temperature.
Tasting Notes & pairings
Golden yellow with tinges.
Great olfactory complexity. Noticeable floral notes of jasmine and orange blossom, along with delicate notes of crusty bread.
Good acidity, long taste with a strong tannic structure.
Excellent with smoked salmon, tuna and swordfish, mushrooms, quality fish and shellfish,
medium-aged cheeses and tasty white meats.
