2014 / Harmony and purity

The very mild winter was followed by stages of frost, spread over from the end of March to the beginning of May, during which the negative temperatures were countered thanks to water spraying. The flowering was homogeneous and concentrated on a fortnight with sunshine and heat. As for the rainfalls, after being very abundant in February, they became so scarce that they over halved on the second quarter. In July and August contrariwise the meteorology became gloomy, cool and very wet. Luckily a glorious weather followed by the end of August. In September, the Indian summer went on and was accompanied by North wind. Therefore the grapes reached an optimum maturity along with perfect balance, great freshness, magnificent purity and precision.
