The previous cycle ended with lower-than-average minimum temperatures and widespread frosts from early November. Winter temperatures were lower than normal, but they were above average in early April, leading to suitable budburst in the second fortnight of the month. Summer temperatures were normal for the time of year and combined with the abundant water reserves in the soil and good luminosity, the vineyard developed excellently, with a faster vine cycle. Stormy periods with abundant precipitation during early September led to a delay in harvesting.

This wine is suitable for drinking now, but it can be aged for up to 20 years if stored in the ideal conditions.
