Adaptability and dedication were key to a successful 2023 vintage!
Winter was slightly cooler than the previous year, followed by a warmer spring allowing bud break
to unfold in late March. After this early warmth, unusually cooler spells ensued, accompanied by
sporadic and often heavy rainfall which significantly increased the threat of mildew.
Flowering occurred in summerlike conditions which were particularly conducive to fruit set. Early
véraison (colour change) in mid-July gave way to an unsettled August (starting cool before turning
very hot).
Summer temperatures proved a godsend, allowing the grapes to reach optimum ripeness.
“In light of these difficult weather conditions, our ability to adapt played a decisive role in producing
a good 2023 vintage. It is a generous vintage, which benefited from excellent ripening conditions,
once again showing the resilience of the vines in the face of extreme weather conditions.
The resulting wines are deeply-coloured, with a wonderful aromatic intensity and ripe fruit notes.
They are rich yet not excessively so and perfectly well-balanced!”
