Palate
Sweet, fresh, well-structured flavor; with hints of honey and final sensations of candied citrus fruit.
Growing Conditions
After two particularly poor vintages of rainfall , at the beginning of the year the 2024 vintage looked at risk for the survival of the vineyards. The climate changed radically at the end of February presenting the first rains accompanied by ambient temperatures that remained above average for the winter period.
The high amount of water ( about 800 mm of rain in the first seven months) resulted in a high aggressiveness of fungal pathogens, especially downy mildew and in some cases also powdery mildew. The production result was strongly influenced by the pressure of the pathogens and the ability of the companies to manage the vegetation and crop defense. Despite the fact that the vintage was very bad from a meteorological point of view; thanks to the experience and timeliness of the winemakers' treatments in the vineyard, good quality, very fine and elegant wines were obtained.
