CLIMATE:

Harvest: this vintage looked like being perfectly mature at the end of August, although we usually only start picking the reds after 15 September. After due reflection we chose to start the harvest at the end of the month so as not to fall into a trap by waiting, which would have resulted in a loss of the freshness and subtle aromas which are the hallmark of 2005.
