Nose

A honey, liquorice and tobacco nose.

Palate

Complex palate with notes of coffee, honey and sultanas. A classic expression of meditation wine.

Growing Conditions

After a long winter – which also saw heavy snowfall – April brought about the vegetative awakening, accompanied by a good rainfall throughout the whole of May which created abundant water resources.
A “normal” summer followed, without temperatures being too high as in 2003 or with repeated rainfalls as in 2002.

Harvest

The harvest, concluded on 26th October, resulted in perfectly ripened grapes and a total absence of viral diseases in the bunches that were healthy and beautiful.
This magnificent start made it possible to obtain a perfect balance between alcoholic strength and total acidity, as well as beautiful and even colours.
