Steady rainfall during spring encouraged moderate growth of the vines from mid-April. The dry period in July would not cause any damage to the grapes protected by the dense canopy of springtime leaves. The life-giving heavy rainfall at the beginning of August and the modest quantity of grapes hastened the harvest, which began in the first days of September. Small bunches, rich in aromatic compounds with very light juice produced fresh and expressive wines with beautiful balanced acidities and perfect sugar content.
A fine vintage, to compare to 2017 and 2010. The nose is fine and presents a great aromatic richness with notes of sweet spices (cinnamon, cardamom) and exotic fruits ( mango, papaya, and guava). On the palate, it shows a great complexity: supple and ample, with persistence on spicy and mango flavors.

In this wine, a subtle nose unites rosy florals with ripe, juicy peach. These notions also play on the rounded and juicy palate where fruity ripeness is boosted by medium sweetness. The finish brims with freshness.
