The Mas La Plana is a deep dense cherry colour, with a touch of mahogany. It has a wonderfully intense bouquet typical of this vineyard: hints of cranberries, cherries and truffles, with an incense-like quality developed during ageing in wood. It has a full, elegant and pronounced finish, befitting a wine of this quality.
The 2014 vintage will be remembered as an exceptional year with ideal conditions resulting in a vibrant wine of great purity. A wine with high aromatic complexity, refreshing acidity and delicious linear palate with fine-grained tannins. A vintage with an extraordinary ageing potential.
ხის დაძველებამ მისცა ძველი ოქროს ხასიათი, რომელიც ანათებს სულისკვეთებით, ტკბილი თხილი და წითელი ხილის მინიშნებები, რაც აძლევს პლიუს, ხის პანელებით დაფარულ ღვინოს, რომელიც, რა თქმა უნდა, მზად არის დასალევად.
The 2017 growing season in the Barolo area will be remembered for hot temperatures and minimal precipitation. Winter was mild with limited snowfall, while the first half of spring was defined by occasional rain showers and temperatures above seasonal averages resulting in early vine development. A sudden drop in temperatures was registered at the end of April with several frost events that affected in particular hillside vineyards. A lengthy period of beautiful weather began in the month of May and continued into the summer season, culminating with very high temperatures. Several isolated rain showers in the month of August provided generous groundwater reserves, essential for completion of the vines’ vegetative cycle. As of the first week of September, temperatures dropped considerably with significant temperature swings between day and night. In general, this vintage produced lower yields, but the grapes were of excellent quality. Harvesting took place on September 19th.
This revered vineyard was planted in 1865 and it celebrates the incredible legacy and history of Australian Shiraz. Located just north of Auburn, the Attunga Vineyard is still producing fruit commercially today and in certain years is released as a single vineyard wine of widespread acclaim.
