The vintage
- 2023 - An year of plenitude. The 2023 spring weather was unsettled, with many storms that fortunately did not have damage on the vineyards. Thanks to a high rainfall in August, grapes were numerous and juicy. We feared that achieving perfect maturity would be a challenge because of the high volume of grapes, but the fruits finished ripening and the aromas concentrated extremely fast thanks to an unexpected heatwave that hit us at the beginning of September. It is also around that time that harvest started (on the 5th of September). Yeast did transform sugar into alcohol at a relatively slow pace, alcoholic fermentation finished in December. While tasting, we get a dominance of fruit driven aromas and a gourmet, elegant vintage. We note that 2023 is more refined than 2020 vintage for both reds and whites. What a blessed vintage!
