Vintage

The 2023 weather conditions were challenging, with heat waves, thunderstorms, hailstorms, and even a small tornado before the harvest. The grapes were healthy but varied due to the weather. Despite some challenges, a bit of rain and fluctuating temperatures brought relief. The diverse grapes will make this vintage rich and unique.

Winemaking

Harvested at full maturity. Grape pressing to extract the must followed by low temperature-controlled fermentation in stainless steel tanks. The malolatic fermentation is only parltial to keep some of the crispyness to the wine. Bottling after 6 or 8 months. Ready to drink 2 months after bottling.
