Description: 2017 vintage will be remembered as one of the most distinctive in recent years.
The winter was pleasantly mild with temperatures above the average of previous
years, and low rainfall. The combination of these factors led to decidedly early
budding compared to the norm. A warm and dry month of March accompanied the development of the vegetative cycle. At the end of April, temperatures dropped significantly to almost zero degrees, without however damaging the
plants. In June, some rains followed the flowering phase which took place
regularly. July and August were rainless, and temperatures rose above average.
The yields of the 2017 vintage showed a decrease in quantity compared to
previous harvests, however, they produced wonderfully healthy grapes with ideal
ripeness.
