Vineyard & Varietal Information
Winter was marked by higher than average seasonal temperatures as well as very low rainfall, thus encouraging a vine development that was 3 weeks in advance. The cold spell at the end of March did not affect the vineyard. The application of prepared cow horn manure (500P) promoted microbial activity, humus formation as well as water absorption and retention within the soil. Although the heavy rainfall in early May increased mildew pressure, tisane-based care (Bourdaine bark, wicker) made it possible to keep the plants in good health. Flowering began, in good conditions, from 15 May. Summer conditions were hot and dry. The application of yarrow and chamomile protected the vineyard from water stress. Stormy episodes around mid-August were salvaging, bringing humidity and freshness. Ripening was gradual and homogeneous up to harvest.
