The winter months of 2022 were markedly poor in precipitation. Only April brought significant rain and replenished the groundwater somewhat. May was one of the warmest on record and gave a strong boost to vegetation. The entire summer was marked by drought and was reminiscent of the summers of 2003 and 2015. The ripening of the grapes progressed rapidly and already on August 24 the first grapes were delivered to the winery. As the autumn also brought hardly any precipitation, the grape harvest went smoothly and excellent grapes were harvested. As early as mid-October, the grape harvest came to an end.

– rich, brilliant ruby red
– ripe blackberries, wild cherries and licorice on the nose
– medium-bodied on the palate, with perfectly balanced tannins, a pleasing, drinkable wine, finishes with a touch of ripe, sweet fruit.

This wine pairs perfectly with game and wild poultry dishes, as well as piquant cheeses.

Fermentation on the skins at 28 °C, two week extended maceration, malo-lactic fermentation and 12 month aging in barrique (1/4 new), gentle filtration before bottling.

South-facing, bowl-shaped parcel with a very warm microclimate, 250 – 350 meters above sea level. Loamy, sedimentary soils with gravel.
