Production Details The 2020 season had a mild winter and spring, flowering in early June, a very dry and hot summer, later rain, and cool summer nights that preserved acidity. The wine was bottled in spring and then cellar-aged for at least two years; the source also specifies no long ageing on lees.
Tasting Notes Elegant bouquet; rose, lychee and citrus; lively, fresh finish
