Harvest report

January and February, with minimum temperatures almost always below zero, paved the way for the 2018 season. The following three very rainy months ensured the accumulation of excellent water reserves for the soil throughout the season. The budding occurred one week later than the average. Beginning of flowering at the end of May, with splendid sunny days and with maximum temperatures that on some days touched 30 degrees, led to a perfect setting of the bunches. The season continued normally with hot days which stimulated fruit formation with veraison beginning at the end of July. The September days with little rainfall and an excellent temperature range created optimal conditions for the ripening of the grapes.
