Vintage

This year, it was the climate and its extremes that gave us an incredible and very surprising vintage. 2017 was a year in which the elegance and balance of the wines and the softness of the tannins contrasted with a growing season of extreme weather phenomena and an exceptionally small harvest in the south.

Winemaking

The grapes are picked at phenolic maturity and harvested Machine. After destemming, the grapes are vinified in concrete tanks for three weeks. Pumping over operations are staggered and performed each day in order to gently extract the aromatic substance, anthocyanins and tannins. The temperature of the alcoholic fermentation is checked and regulated. At the end of the alcoholic fermentation, the temperature is allowed to increase to 30 -33 degrees to help the polymerization of the tannins.
