Terroir:
The 2021 vintage enjoyed an enologically excellent climate. A cold, dry winter gave way to a rainy spring with mild temperatures, followed by a very hot summer during the day but cooling at night. The high rainfall between April and June was the ideal reserve that the grapes needed for optimum ripening until October, with excellent vegetative growth of the vines that allowed the harvest to be extended until November, avoiding the hottest months and permitting a cool and efficient harvest in La Raja Valley.
