Celeste is born 895 meters (2,937 feet) above sea level, where the vines and the sky form a magical connection, resulting in a wine filled with the freshness, emotion, and intensity of a starry night

The area’s topography is gentle, characterized by high plateaus traversed by steep, narrow valleys that give the region its distinctive morphology. The area is located at 895 meters (2,937 feet) above sea level, which has a significant influence on the region’s climate and winegrowing. Specifically, the vineyard sits atop deposits from the Upper Miocene and Quaternary periods. The predominant Upper Miocene lithology is based on grey limestone interspersed with marl, whereas the Quaternary areas are mostly composed of clay. The soils that formed on top of these materials tend to exhibit medium to fine textures and are very rich in carbonate.

Temperatures and precipitation were lower during the grapevines’ growth season, from April to September, compared to the same period last year, which was particularly rainy. During the grape maturation period, from August to September, there was little and sporadic rainfall, with an average temperature that was more than one degree lower than the previous year.

This wine has a lovely dark cherry red color with subtle warm toasty glints. The aromatic expression is clean, with notes of flowers (wild scrub) and black fruit (blackberry jam) over smoky, toasty undertones (coffee). It is luscious and wonderfully velvety, well-constructed and with the substance of a great wine, supported by the clean, spiced oak from its good aging.
