The year began with a very snowy winter lasting into spring, while May and June brought warm and pleasant weather that allowed flowering and fruit set to develop regularly and rapidly.

A warm, dry, breezy, and stable autumn then allowed for the full ripening of the grape clusters.

The Wines

A great vintage characterized by wines of a “traditional” style, with good acidity and an austere tannic structure that will reveal its full potential only over time.

Wines suitable for very long aging and worthy of being kept for many years.
