Tasting note

Faunae 2019 has a marvellous and intense ruby-red colour. The nose presents splendid fruity notes that work perfectly with the subtle floral and spiced notes on the finish. Among these, hints of cherry, wild strawberry and raspberry stand out. The tannins are well pronounced. The persistence and intensity are wonderful.

Vinification

2019 winter was cold, ample rain, and even snow. Mild spring weather spurred lush foliage growth. August started with ideal conditions; warm days and refreshing night breezes. The summer was pleasantly warm and saw mid-August showers. During grape harvest, aromas and tannins were abundant, and soft, velvety textures were attributed to timely rainfall.
