Vintage

The 2024 vintage is the year of the return to "relative" normality after two extreme years, where we had reached record meteorological records due to high temperatures and drought.The rainfall collected during the autumn-winter and early spring has been sufficient to replenish the soil's water reserves and despite the fact that hardly any rain was collected from the beginning of April to the end of August, the vines have been able to develop their vegetative cycle in suitable conditions. The yields were above the two previous vintages, although below a normal harvest.In short, 2024 is a good vintage with fresh, aromatic wines and adequate aging potential.

Winemaking

100% Old Vine Chardonnay. After the harvest, the grapes are brought to the winemaking cellar where they are de-stemmed and lightly crushed to obtain only quality must. It is then macerated with the skins at 10ºC for 10 hours to obtain the maximum extraction of aroma. The final must obtained is then fermented at 20ºC in new American & 10% French oak barrels and periodically stirred to keep the lees suspended.
