The vintage
The vintage started with a long winter and one of the driest ones in the past years followed by an inexistent Spring. The crop development was very slow due to important climatic variations. The winemakers’ work was therefore crucial to get good quality grapes in small quantities. 2013 was a complicated vintage and late but is wonderfully balanced and is very promising.

Reviews
"Redcurrants and yellow raspberries on the nose, while the mouth is supple with fruity roundness in the middle, and a lively finish that is quite long. "
"Pale orange-pink. High pitched, spicy red berry aromas are complicated by a hint of succulent herbs. Dry and tightly wound, conveying good energy and lift to its redcurrant and blood orange flavors. Finishes tight and clean, with good energy and stony cut."
