Caburnio 2018
Winter vas very rainy and mild. Budding happened at the end of March, in a rainy Spring with average temperatures. Vegetative growth was vigorous and fast. Also Summer was wet but veraison started regularly in mid-July. Harvest was linear with some light showers that didn’t cause any inconvenience. The harvest of the varieties dedicated to Caburnio began the 27th of August with the Merlot to be concluded the 21st of September with the Cabernet Sauvignon. Healthy grapes at an excellent maturation stage.

Intense and brilliant ruby red. At the nose it offers crackling aromas of red fruits, cassis and raspberry, interspersed by notes of Mediterranean scrub and delicate spices. Of a great pleasantness, complex, with smooth and sweet tannins that make it linger in the mouth in the name of minerality and drinkability.
