VINTAGE 2011

RODA I

Black fruit in a wine with character that maintains the freshness of the fruit.

RODA I is blended with parcels that that year have ripened in a black fruit profile. The deep black fruit, is almost always dominated by the plumb and supported by mineral notes, chocolate and balsamic sensations, that form an ensemble that slowly flows from the furthest side of the glass until it becomes huge in the entrance of the nose. In the mouth, the volume becomes evident, the fruit complexity nicely surrounds the mouth cavity showing the numerous and polished tannins. The wine gets longer making stronger the retro nasal sensation every time we breathe. A fruity and fresh sensation will last, inviting us to continue drinking.

CLIMATIC CYCLE

An excellent vintage.

568 mm. rainfall during the vegetative cycle. The “high” temperatures in March and April caused an early budding of 15 days compared to 2010.

During the month of July, the temperatures dropped, the average monthly temperature of 19ºC, and the differences with 2010 were reduced to one week at veraison.

The low rainfall in the summer months and the high temperatures of August and September, with a lower production of the vineyard, made that the harvest com early, between 15 and 20 days, compared to 2010.
