2023 Vintage

The winter of 2022-2023 was the second warmest since 1955, but also 25% rainier than average. The abundant rainfall, which continued into spring, put the vineyards under significant pressure from downy mildew, fortunately contained by copper-based treatments and resistance inducers. The intense rains led to a slight reduction in yield. The summer drought, with three months without rain and two intense heatwaves between August and September, posed a serious challenge to the vines, which, nonetheless, adapted surprisingly well, aided by agronomic interventions. Finally, the cool September nights and favorable weather conditions provided us with optimal grape ripening.
