Ageing Potential: Delicious now, with Wine Spectator suggesting an ideal drinking window of 2027–2035.
Winter 2022 was characterized by low temperatures and almost no precipitation. Bud break occurred in the first week of April, on average with previous years. Spring continued with above average temperatures which favored vegetative development and early flowering. May and June were dry with classic summer temperatures. The rains that arrived at the end of July and August allowed the vines to complete maturation in a balanced and constant way. The harvest began in the first ten days of September.
