The wines from this terroir are generous and fruity with fine minerality and balanced acidity.nn2019 was a vintage of extremes with frost in May and heat waves during harvest. Rain and cool, damp weather during flowering led to Millerandage. As anresult, yields were lower than average, down 20%. Summer drought and severe heat led to concentration in both flavor and acid in the berries, which ultimately delivered complex, rich and flavorful wines with good acidity.
