The Vintage

Due to the higher than usual rainfall and long ripening periods, the 2013 vintage was harvested one to two weeks later than in a normal year. The cool temperatures obliged us to wait as long as possible (sometimes until the leaves began to fall) for the red grapes to reach optimal phenolic ripeness. Alcohol contents remained moderate this year with some interesting levels of acidity, suggesting that we can hope for some very well-balanced wines. The harvest was generally good in terms of quantity, in accordance with the trend for the region, except for the Carmenere, whose flowering was hindered by the rain.
