A challenging year with torrential rain until late June, followed by a drought that lasted from July until the end of the harvest. The maturation was slow, very slow, but eventually happened and the grapes were fresh and crunchy when harvested. Turned out to be a great vintage!

Twenty seventeen was first characterised by a mid-April frost that devastated half of the vineyard as the sprigs were already quite grown. An intense drought followed, concentrating in the remaining grapes all the sun received by the leaves. The challenge was then to keep the freshness and acidity of our wines, which we managed to do, and it resulted in powerful yet digestible wines. A good year, with a good long-keeping potential for the great cuvées.

After a particularly mild winter, a tropical vintage from the beginning of the season until July, followed by magnificent weather during the harvest. A year that we will remember: extremely qualitative, unfortunately marred by a very minimal quantity at the estate due to a massive attack of mildew. This wine exceptionally comes from grapes purchased from a neighbor, also in organic conversion, to survive this second year of small harvest.
