“Encinado is a new wine in the line-up. It comes from a single vineyard, planted around 70 years ago. which had been abandoned for many decades and that the Michelinis bought and revived. The soils are sandy, on top of gray slate. The wine was made one hundred per cent from full clusters, foot trodden, and then fermented in amphorae with a long maceration. Elevage was made in 500 liter French oak barrels. The high elevation of the site and the old vines gives the wine a great lift and purity, and this is an excellent debut.” —winemaker
