COLLECTION 245

Vintage

2020 had a similar pattern to 2019:

a mild and humid winter followed by a dry summer

with several heatwaves, although less extreme

than 2019, which still had an impact on

the vines. Fortunately, a rather gloomy June

led to a humid interlude between two periods of drought.

Despite the heatwaves and the impression of

constant sunshine, the 2020 harvest recorded

relatively normal temperatures and sunshine.

These continental conditions, but with "normal" annual

averages, allowed us to produce mature and

balanced wines!

The harvest took place from August 22 to September 11

2020.

Tasting Notes

Beautiful golden yellow hue.

Regular and dynamic effervescence.

Bouquet of yellow fruits (nectarine), ripe and concentrated citrus fruits

(lemons) accompanied by sweet notes of pollen/

petals reminiscent of almonds (confetti) and freshly

cut wheat. Incredible maturity of the fruit, complex

and intense, characterized by strong aromatic notes, pure

and decisive, with slightly smoky nuances.

Velvety, caressing, rich and juicy palate.

The bubbles, almost salty, are wrapped in a

broad and concentrated texture; refined balance between matter

and fragrant, dusty and saline calcareous freshness that

gives an inebriating sensation of freshness. The

smoky, slightly woody notes extend the long

and deliciously chiselled finish.
