Generations of local knowledge have taught our grape growers the secrets of each appellation. They know where to source the best grapes to create the most outstanding wines.
The vintage
2022 is a vintage marked by climatic excesses which followed one another with varying degrees of intensity from April onwards (frost, hail, drought and heatwaves) and will be remembered as one of the earliest vintages of the last 20 years. A mild and dry winter led to an early bud break, flowering was prompt and homogeneous thanks to the perfect climatic conditions (warm and dry) and the parasite pressure was very low. Thanks to the high water reserves of the 2021 vintage, the vines resisted rather well to the drought during the summer. Two thunderstorms in August allowed all the grape varieties to reach full maturation. The first white grape harvests began on August 16th.

Tasting
Bright yellow colour.
Very aromatic on the nose, mixing floral notes of lily with ripe fruit aromas (white peach, pineapple, lychee).
The wine is ample on the palate, round and balanced with a good freshness on the finish.
