CLIMATE<\/h5>\n

The 2020 Vintage we will remember for the rest of our lives, as the COVID Pandemic arrived as we were carrying out the dry pruning. The abundant rainfall in Spring made it difficult to carry out the very necessary work of the green harvest in the vineyards. A year of lots of hard work on the land, hoeing by hand to take out the weeds in our organic vineyards. The ripening in September was cold and slow, we waited patiently and harvested perfectly mature grapes in October.
\nGreat wines from 2020, after much effort and hard work in a very complicated year.<\/p>\n<\/div>
