Riccitelli, Old Vines Semillon, Río Negro, Patagonia, 2019

Aromas are refined, subtle and seductive, including stone fruits, fresh dough, citrus fruits, floral notes and a hint of spice. On the palate it has incredible freshness and excellent concentration allied with well-judged oak, spending a few months in 2,000-litre foudres to gain weight and texture, without imparting overt oaky flavour. Refined and well integrated, boasting excellent purity of fruit. This is a wine that in 10 years’ time will not only be drinking magnificently, but will also be credited for contributing to the variety’s revival in South America.
