Description
The 2022 vintage was similar to recent vintages in Sardinia. After a rainy November and December, the rest of the winter was dry. Spring was also lacking in rainfall, with only some showers in April. The summer was long and hot, yet without the heat waves characteristic of previous vintages. A dry September allowed for a regular harvest. The quality of the grapes was good with enough acidity and phenolic concentration. Samas remains at a top quality this vintage.
