THE VINTAGE 
Outstanding in many ways, 2017 was a very hot and dry year leading to a small harvest. The main characteristic of this vintage is the exceptional quality of the wines produced. The reds, whose grapes were perfectly ripe, exhale aromas of black fruits with a lovely long and silky palate. The tannins are sweet. The wines have a long aging capacity.

TASTING NOTES
Beautiful ruby red color, with slightly bluish reflections. Intense and complex nose: small candied red berries, mocha and sage. The palate is full and smooth from the start, with good volume, sweetness and a nice touch of silky tannins. On the palate we find the aromatic notes of the nose, with a touch of liquorice and hints of vanilla pod. The finish is delicately spicy for a nice sensation of freshness and tension. A beautiful terroir wine: rich, expressive, racy and elegant.
