Vintage Notes
With some ups and downs, the 2023 vintage wasn’t just good – it was very good. After a dry Winter and rainy April and May, flowering began a little late this year - in mid-June - and was complete already after just 10 days of perfect weather conditions. Summer had a dry start – but the rain and cooler days at the beginning of August were optimal for the development of the grapes. We began harvesting on 7 September, but were caught by surprise with a heavy thunder- and hailstorm in mid-September. Thankfully, we got off lightly, and were able to complete the harvest on 18 October - happy and satisfied with this 2023 vintage!
