Climate trend: 2015 vintage was really special and it was characterized by a very

intense light and by the sun, a long lasting summer heat.

Mostly the light depended by the cosmic cycle condition of the sun,

repeating every 15 years and having reached the top this year.

After a mild winter and a regular spring, the strong rain falls in June

brought some hail to a couple of vineyards, but, thanks to the following

dry season we recovered completely and we reached September with

unforgettable grapes: a great year!



Winemaking technique: We harvest the Cabernet sauvignon about one week before the Corvina.

Both grapes are placed in drying, the Cabernet is pressed after two

weeks, while the Corvina is left to dry for three weeks. Separate vinification

and rest for 18 months in new tonneau for the Cabernet and 1-2

years old tonneau for the Corvina.
