2021 Ulysses

TASTING NOTES
High-toned, luminous, passionfruit, focused red berries, flinty with an elegant, long finish.

VINTAGE SUMMARY
The vintage was characterized by a dry winter and spring, with a total of 14” of rain (July 2020 to June 2021, historical average: 31”). 2021 was the second consecutive year of a drought that started in January 2020.

Temperatures were constantly warm over the growing season, moderately higher than the
historical average and remained consistent throughout the ripening period.

The weather conditions in 2021 favored an early hydric constraint which promoted production of small berries with high levels of phenolic compounds and deeply intense aromas.
