Harvest 2019 began in mid-September and ended in mid-October, returning us to a more \u2018classic\u2019 harvest schedule than in recent years.
\nOverall it was a vintage characterized by a mild winter.<\/p>\n
Temperatures fell to below 0\u00b0C on just a few nights in January, whilst peaks of 10\u00b0C were
\nrecorded both in early December and in early January.<\/p>\n
The soils were therefore still \u2018workable\u2019, so and we took the opportunity to aerate them with some superficial subsoil tilling. Between the end of March and the beginning of April, temperatures settled above 10\u00b0C and the vine\u2019s new vegetative cycle began.<\/p>\n
The absence of significant rainfall during budding considerably reduced the impact of the main pathogen: downy mildew.<\/p>\n
In May, the scenario changed abruptly, with the advent of considerable wet weather and very low, practically winter-like temperatures.<\/p>\n
This situation conditioned the life cycle of all plants, not just vines. The real difference came with the summer, especially in our hillside and
\nupper-hillside vineyards, where temperatures remained below 30\/32\u00b0C.<\/p>\n
This is also why we expect wines with exceptional finesse and elegance.<\/p>\n
The controlled drying (appassimento) of the harvested grapes, which lasts for a about one hundred days, brings with it the great aromatic intensity of dark fruit and undergrowth, together with spicy and tobacco notes. The impact on the palate is powerful and vigorous, with the wine gradually tapering on the acidic and savoury momentum, extending gently with a clean, dry finish.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
