Vintage Conditions
A very wet winter and spring after several La Niña years set the vines up for a large crop. Dry conditions from November were perfect for developing good flavours and reduced disease pressure during harvest. We were able to pick at the optimum moment, which resulted in wines of excellent flavour and structure. Our biggest harvest ever.
