GROWING SEASON
The 2013 climatic trend was characterized by abundant winter and spring rainfall. The soil remained soaked with water throughout the winter, ensuring a good water reserve. Spring began as soon as the rains ended with high daily averages. The soils rich in water, high temperatures, solar radiation allowed the clusters to form uniformly. Summer was characterized by average high temperatures during the day, but low enough at night which allowed the grapes to ripen perfectly both from a technological and polyphenolic point of view. The harvest began at the end of August for the whites. The Sangiovese was harvested from mid-September. Quality harvest for both whites and reds, with healthy and perfectly ripe grapes with a good aromatic heritage.
