The quality of the wine begins in the vineyard and each of our estates is in a privileged place to make great wines. These places are called Terroir, a French term that connotes the influence that the vineyard receives from the ecological system in which it lives. It includes the microclimate –altitude, temperatures, thermal amplitude (difference between day and night), hours of sunshine, humidity and winds-; the composition of the soil, subsoil and its minerals; and the intervention of man in the management of the vineyard. The interaction between all these factors gives the vineyard its own unique characteristics, which make up its taste personality.
