The public health crisis has certainly marked this year’s harvest, which nonetheless has been able to go ahead!
Despite the year’s record temperatures and lack of rainfall, there has been no lack of quality, although yields are down, with an especially mixed picture with regard to reds.
However, these have generally been very well-balanced. Overall, we have seen nice levels of acidity, promising good aging potential.
