2023 vintage (red)

In 2023, Pinot Noir proved, once again, that it is king of the grape varieties. After a rigorous sorting
process, some very fine juices were extracted, with a great variety of aromas. The result is expressive, fruity wines with beautiful aromatic profiles. The red wines are expressive and open up quickly. They have delicious flavours, in some cases reminiscent of fresh red fruits, such as raspberries, or with aromas of dark fruits, such as blackberries, and even spices for some wine profiles. On the palate, they have a lovely density, with a silky tannic structure. During vinification, conditions were just right for good colour extraction. The deep, intense colours of the wine are superb.
