New harvest is here

The new vintages for the year of 2013 are finally upon us. We had a predominantly colder winter this year with plenty of precipitation. When April finally came we saw the budbreak occur with above average temperatures. However, at the end of April a strong frost destroyed part of the most precocious Avesso marking this vintage as a year of low yields and of great quality.

Maturation was finally accelerated by the transition in temperature at the end of June fostering exceptional ripening for the grape varieties.
