Story: Since the first harvest in 1954, we have carefully selected the vineyards to produce a wine that is now legendary and of inimitable personality. Weather conditions: The 2024 harvest was rather early with lower production due to droughts in previous years. The weather was variable, with heavy rain in spring and a mild summer. Vegetative cycle temperatures were similar to 2023, but cooler during ripening. Rainfall was closer to normal, exceeding previous years. Ripening was correct, reaching optimal levels in each case. The good health of the grapes allowed for the production of fresh and aromatic reds, with good acidity and very balanced on the palate.
