Harvest 2024: The 2024 vintage was developed under difficult climatic conditions, as the usual frosts in Ribera del Duero were followed by abundant rainfall and marked temperature variations during the middle of the harvest in September and October. These extreme conditions had an impact from the flowering stage to the final ripening, challenging the vines at every stage of the process. However, these same climatic factors have also played a crucial role in the development of high quality grapes, which promise to transform into exceptional wines. The result is a vintage that stands out for its complexity and depth, reflecting resilience and ingenuity in turning climatic challenges into high quality wines.
