Vintage
2018
2018 produced exceptional quality ripe grapes. Heatwave and Ideal conditions lasted all throughout the growing season. June provided excellent weather for flowering and temperatures heated up to 30 degrees, July turned out to be the second warmest on record. The dry and warn autumn allowed us to leave the grapes on the vine longer gaining greater fruit concentration and full-ripeness.
