After a dry, snowless winter February brought ample rainfalls. But in spring, particularly in April and May the dry weather returned. During blooming-season in the beginning of June the weather took another turn and became quite wet and cool. By the end of June local thunderstorms brought plenty of downpour up to almost torrential rainfalls. July was very dry again and a heatwave in early August meant more stressful conditions for the vines. We started harvesting as early as September 14th in order to ensure picking healthy and ripe grapes with plenty of acidity. The decision was proven to be correct as continually high temperatures made the acidity levels dwindle further. Harvest was periodically interrupted by periods of rain. In the end we are happy to be presenting wines from healthy grapes with great and distinct aromatics, and elegant fruit acid: fruity, aromatic, pure and characteristic.
Food Pairing: Salads with fruit components and a lemon based dressing, light currys, Thai food, good in combination with a hint of spice.
