The vintage
The 2018 season came up with ideal weather conditions. It started with a normal amount of rain, creating a perfect setting for flowering and fruit set. Minimum temperatures never reached extreme levels, so we did not suffer from frosts. The main feature of our 2018 summer was a gentle climate, with heat remaining under average, which translated into a slow maturation. This crucial factor, added to the absence of rain towards the end of the season, was essential for harvesting the fruit at its peak, delivering balanced wines.

Tasting
Purple-red color with a flashy garnet hue.
The nose conveys a delicate interaction between black and red fruits -blackberry and ripe strawberries, accompanied by notes of spices such as black pepper and bay leaf. On the palate it has a good structure, and thanks to the silkiness of the Carménère’s tannins it is possible to obtain a surprising smoothness.
