Paleo Rosso 2001

Le Macchiole (hentet 13. okt. 2026): Paleo Rosso 2001 – Toscana IGT Druer: 100 % Cabernet Franc (producentens tekniske ark). Vejret (producentens tekst, engelsk): A mild winter throughout the first part of the year led to a very early budbreak. A major frost event (-3C) on the eve of Easter caused significant losses here and there, leading to a natural green harvesting process. Spring weather was quite cool, with temperatures rising in May. Summer within the norm, very hot from mid-August. Shots of cold air arrived, without rainfall, in early September, which slowed down the ripening process, in particular, of the Cabernet Franc grapes, helping them achieve a more than satisfactory ripeness.
