Climate |
The climatic course of the vintage is a textbook example of winegrowing. All the phenological phases of the vine took place in the optimal period and under optimal climatic conditions. A rainy Winter allowed the soils to build up an excellent water reserve, which the vines were then able to draw on during the Summer, which had warm if not torrid temperatures. Thanks to the cool Spring, the vines developed a balanced vegetation, which they were able to maintain until the grape harvest. The presence of rainfall during the veraison period was fundamental in ensuring the correct metabolism of the plant and, therefore, the balanced ripening of the grape's carbohydrates and polyphenols. Finally, the good night-time temperature fluctuations during the Autumn period allowed the development of intense varietal aromas. At harvest, the grapes were very healthy. |
