VINTAGE REPORT

Another wet spring due to La Niña.
No frost in October. After some good spring rain, the weather did not warm up enough at flowering to get a good bunch set. The bunches were all there but had small berries and they were also underweight. The increase of the density of the canopy resulted in an increase of workload in the vineyard. January to March were nice and warm with no extremes in weather allowing the crop to ripen nicely, resulting in excellent quality wine.
