Similar to the 2018 (of high qualitative value), the vintage 2022 has been hot and dry.
Initially, only the plants benefited from it which, placed in favorable soils and exposures, did not suffer water stress and in this sense managed to maintain the aromatic characteristics and freshness typical of the wines of the area.
From August onwards, fortunately, the drought gave way to rain thanks to which the plants managed to rebalance all the fundamental qualitative parameters of the grapes in time for the harvest.
The wines produced were powerful, concentrated but at the same time
fresh in the microzones where the drought hit less heavily.
