Vineyard size: 4.5 ha (11 acres). Vineyard exposure: south-west. Soil: limestone with sandy veins. Vinification: fermentation at 30 °C (85 °F), 28 days’ skin contact, malolactic completed. Ageing: 36 months in large oak barrels and 12 months in bottle. Bottling date: April 2018. Total production: 10,000 bottles. This is bottle number 2690. A shade deeper than the Pora Riserva and perhaps a little more youthful. Deep, peppery, dusty strawberry fruit on the nose. A little more concentration on the palate, too, with linear acidity and pure raspberry fruit. Cool, elegant and with a gripping tannic structure. 14% Drink 2020-2030
