Vinification
The intensely hot 2011 season brought scorching winds in August. Dehydrated berries were removed from the bunches one by one with scissors, a painstaking selection that continued at night under lamps.
Ageing
The wine spent 45 months in wood, followed by at least 21 months of bottle ageing.
Technical data
Production comprised 2,340 bottles.
Tasting profile
The 2011 vintage produced a fluid, introverted wine.
Serving and pairing
Uncork 20 minutes before tasting to allow the wine to breathe. Burgundy-shaped glasses are used.
Vintage notes
2011 is described as “La poesia” (“Poetry”), an exceptionally hot vintage shaped by the hot August wind and meticulous removal of dehydrated berries.
