Description:

The 2020 vintage was very early, hot, which despite the spring rains is marked by the summer drought. Thanks to the clay-limestone soil, the vines of Pitray have not suffered from water stress and it is a fruit of great maturity but balanced that is expressed. At the tasting we feel, first of all the warmth of the vintage with notes of black fruits and very ripe tannins, then the terroir softens and tempers this expression. Here the wines are gourmet but all in velvet and refinement.

Notes of ripe fruit and black tea leaves, it is a young but accomplished wine, ready to taste, whose tannins are already well integrated.
