The Adrianna Vineyard is considered the Grand Cru site of South America, high in the Andes with soils full of limestone and gravel. This wine shows that combination of cool conditions and masses of intense sunshine, and in the warmth of 2020 is on the richer side. There's plenty of black plum, damson and blueberry fruit, with chalky layers, fresh mint, and vanilla spice. They achieved only tiny yields this year, and only 5,700 bottles were made.

Tasting the 2020 Adrianna Vineyard Mundus Bacillus Terrae next to the 2019 showed a different aromatic profile of darker fruit, denoting ripeness and sun. The wine was still very young with a luxurious, creamy texture and mouthfeel. 2020 was an extremely dry year (70% lower than the average with just 282 liters!), and the grapes were picked two to three weeks earlier. It has a bright, saturated color and a heady nose with ripe berries and a spicy, smoky twist from 19 months in oak vats. It's medium to full bodied, with a soft texture and velvety tannins, sleek and seamless. 5,700 bottles produced. It was bottled in November 2021.
