Climate The winter was mild and rainy, with a March with temperatures even close to 0°C, which, however, did not bring frost. Spring was warm, with a fair amount of rain, ensuring regular vegetative development. The summer was hot and dry. Temperatures dropped around the end of August, only to rise again towards the middle of September. It was a fairly balanced year, but one in which the summer heat peaks had to be managed well.
