For the winemakers, 2016 was a year with mixed emotions. The extreme and contrasting weather conditions presented many challenges. The protection of the vines during the summer was particularly difficult and required constant attention and rapid action. In late summer, they were finally rewarded with dry, sunny weather which allowed for good grape development along with a rapid increase in mass. The patience required to let the grapes mature fully on the vine paid off and they are delighted with a high quality harvest with aromatic grapes and are expecting rich wines as a result.
