It is a versatile grape born to make wines for ageing.
It has been a very difficult year in terms of weather and harvest and yet the wines of this vintage are wines with structure and exceptional freshness.
White and rosé wines characterised by a relevant aromatic intensity and great freshness. Ideal to combine with short and medium stays in barrels that can provide greater aromatic complexity and taste structure.
As for the red wines, we will once again find warm, very structured and aromatically complex wines. Ideal to combine with short, medium and long stays in barrels.
