Clear, golden color with topaz reflections. Complex and intense notes of honey, nutmeg and toasted wood aromas. On the palate, well balanced and dry with a long, spicy finish and a lingering freshness.
The 2002 harvest was defined by the pruning date as those who pruned earlier suffered a reduction in volume of approximately 30%, compared to those who pruned in late March. Overall the production of the Sercial was of very low volume, particularly from our growers on the north, but the warm weather and low humidity ensured that the fruit grown high in the mountains on the south of the island benefitted from perfect conditions, enabling the farmers to leave the fruit on the vine for longer, allowing for further development.
