Production Details A slight increase in the pink colour and intensity compared to 2011. Great winter with sufficiently cold and wet conditions. Spring brought moderate warmth initiating good even growth but late cultivars such as Cabernet Sauvignon received rain during flowering causing bad fruit set resulting in a 45% lower crop. Reds wines stood out in the vintage as being expressive and classical with lower alcohols.
Tasting Notes
Palate: tangy textured mouthfeel, dry finish, low alcohol content
