Terroir

2017 Vintage

Low rainfall in winter and early budbreak.
Some winter freeze at the end os April caused some yield reduction.
Occasional rains in summer and ideal conditions in August reduced water stress in the plant and led to an early harvest in September with small berries and perfect balance.
Vintage rating: Very good
