VINTAGE NOTES
Winter arrived late, with a very cold and relatively dry spell in February. But the end of 2017 and the month of January 2018 were mild and notably rainy, which allowed for ample replenishment of water reserves in both the soil and beneath ground. March saw the return of copious rainfall, and cool, and the vines took their time in awakening. It was‚ not until we saw the first real evidence of sunshine in early April that spring set in for real, bringing with it the first signs of budbreak. At this point the cycle was neither late nor early, allowing for growth to develop in perfectly bright, sunny conditions. This brightness proved to be the hallmark of the vintage, with remarkable levels of sunshine prevailing from April through to September.
