THE 2024 GROWING SEASON
2024 is a precocious and promising vintage. The growing season began quite early, aided by the mild and rainy
conditions in the first part of the year, which ensured an excellent water supply for the vineyards. Even in the
following months, abundant rainfall continued to support plant development, although it made vineyard
management particularly demanding and required great care. Starting at the end of June, the arrival of warm, sunny
days created ideal conditions for a quality harvest. The vines gradually slowed their growth, showing reduced vigour
at just the right time: during véraison at the end of July, a crucial phase for concentration and aromatic development.
This hot and dry period was interrupted in mid-August by some localized storms, which brought variable rainfall
across different vineyards, allowing the grapes to complete their ripening in optimal conditions. From early
September onwards, an alternation of sunny, cool and occasionally rainy days accompanied the harvest through to
its conclusion, naturally balancing the concentration of the berries without compromising their health. In summary,
2024 proved to be a balanced and dynamic vintage, with nice freshness and poised to produce elegant and
aromatically intense wines.

VINIFICATION AND AGEING
The different varietals were fermented separately in small steel tanks to maintain their characteristics. The alcoholic
fermentation was followed by malolactic fermentation, again in steel tanks. The wine was then aged for 10 months,
partly in barriques used previously for Ornellaia and partly in tanks, to obtain the perfect balance between tannic
structure and the expression of fresh fruit.
