CLIMATE
2015 was an extremely elegant and qualitatively excellent vintage, and one of the most memorable in history. The winter, with heavy rain and snow ensuring excellent water reserves, was followed by a mild onset of spring. Budding and flowering proceeded uniformly and early compared to the previous year. The season continued with a succession of showery intervals. The summer, on the other hand, was particularly hot and dry with above-average temperatures but, thanks to the abundant water reserves accumulated during the winter, the vineyards were not subject to stress. The harvest began about ten days earlier than usual, enabling the grapes to reach perfect balance.
