2023 VINTAGE FEATURES

A challenging seasonal trend, especially in May, when the extraordinary rainfall that caused extensive damage to the Romagna plains affected the hills, causing landslides and, more importantly, limiting access to the vineyards for work.

Managing our organic vineyards was very challenging, but thanks to the great commitment of our collaborators, we managed to obtain a quality harvest, unfortunately penalized by its quantity.

We obtained a highly drinkable wine, versatile in its pairings, intriguing, and long-lived.
