GROWING YEAR
2024 is a particular vintage, which we could define as neatly divided from a meteorological point of view. A hot and dry summer with maximum temperatures always above 30° and no rainfall, contrasted by a cool and rainy spring and autumn.
The abundant winter and spring rains allowed the land to recharge its water reserves, which were then available to the vines during the hottest summer periods.
The summer heat and the early budding of the vines resulted in the picking of the early varieties, Merlot in particular, in the third decade of August, followed by a long break in the harvest, thanks to a decidedly cooler climate starting from September 6th. This rebalanced the gradual ripening of the grapes according to the variety and the terroir of each vineyard or parcel of land.
The harvest ended in the first days of October with the picking of the Cabernet Sauvignon, just a couple of days after the Cabernet Franc.
VINIFICATION
The clusters are picked by hand into small, 15 kg crates, then the whole clusters are gently pressed. The must then ferments for 2 weeks at a controlled temperature of 12 – 14°C in stainless steel.
MATURATION
The rosé matures four months sur lie, with periodic bâttonage, until assemblage of the final blend and successive bottling.
