Relive and experience the tradition of producing wines in clay pots (amphora). The process goes back to ancient Rome when each house had its own wine production. Vinified according to age-old customs. A silent wine with a deep ruby color, an intense aroma with clear notes of black fruit compote, stone fruit, and notes of cocoa. Elegant in the mouth with soft tannins, lively acidity, everything in perfect balance. 
 
Spring presented lower temperatures and higher humidity than  in previous years – these climatic conditions are ripe for fungal diseases in vineyards which demand great care of the vines to prevent mildew bouts. The 
cooler temperatures of the season allowed for extended periods of growth. In spite of the heat that set in from July onwards, the harvest began 10 days prior to its normal date. Even with high temperatures running throughout the entire harvest, the final quality of the grapes was excellent, with consistent sugar levels and a slightly below-average acidity
