Dragon

Tasting notes
The very expressive bouquet shows attractive hints of cherry and raspberry.
The wine is ethereal on the palate, with beautiful freshness that highlights
the delicious fruitiness. The long aftertaste confirms the overall
charm and attractiveness.
The Climate
2014 was marked by an extraordinary Indian summer that saved the vintage. Fine spring weather was conducive to a good start to the growing season. However, challenging summer conditions seriously slowed down ripening. Fortunately, the month of September was absolutely beautiful, with dry, extremely sunny weather accompanied by highs of close to 30°C. This superb weather, with cool night-time temperatures, enabled the grapes to ripen beautifully, and they were able to be brought into the vat house having reached a perfect level of ripeness.
