VINTAGE SUMMARY

The vintage was characterized by a dry winter and spring, with a total of 17” of rain from July 2019 to June 2020 (the historical average: 31”).

With warm temperatures in the spring and our well-drained soils, the vines developed balanced shoot growth. Summer temperatures were consistently warm, allowing for a rapid and homogenous ripening.

Fastidious selection by hand as well as optical sorting were critical in eliminating any berries impacted by the heat.

The end result was a very small crop of good quality.
