The vintage
The 2016 season started with normal winter conditions and rains concentrated in July that did not cause any problems in our vineyards. Spring arrived with high temperatures, exceeding 35ºC, and low minimum temperatures, but without any frosts that could have affected the normal growth of the vines. Summer temperatures were high, with peaks of up to 37.9ºC in January, but gradually dropped below 30ºC in March. The only potential problem was the rain that fell during the harvest; however, careful organization and our team’s quick reactions resulted in excellent quality grapes with a refined, elegant character.
Varietal

Tasting
Ruby red color, plum and cherry-scented nose with hints of caramel, chocolate, tobacco and black olives. Well-structured mouthfeel, good volume, pleasant tannins; a wine with a forward personality.
