Seasonal conditions: an exceptionally warm and dry year, with an average temperature of 12.7°C. The winter was particularly cold, temperatures were below average in spring while those in summer were average and mild in autumn. Rainfall was below the average for the previous 40 years.
A compact, ruby-red color with a nuanced edge. The deep aroma has ethereal notes of varnish and macerated red fruit preserved in alcohol that blend into sensations of underbrush, dark spice and hints of coffee. The mouthfeel has a full and bold body, with evident and thick tannins and an alcohol component that comes out towards the finish that is slightly almond. (Tasted from a magnum bottle).
