The vintage A dry, warm year lacking in rainfall initially slowed down crop growth; thus, use of the irrigation system was necessary. High temperatures and significant solar irradiation then gave the grapes the push they needed to mature, culminating in an extremely good harvest around mid-September. Flavour notes This wine is precise and decidedly engaging to the senses: it recalls various notes of bergamot, lime, white pepper and vetiver. It is saline, almost salty in its aroma, with notes of green olives, iodine, mixed officinal herbs and Chinotto oranges. A medium/full-bodied wine, slightly polyphenolic in structure and almost rustic while sipping, with a joyful and cheery finale, mature yet refined at the same time. Strong salivation coaxes you to return to the glass.
