Growing Season
The 2022 was year to remember for its bizarre climatic characteristics. After a mild and rainy autumn-winter season, the month of March, which started cold and dry, subsequently marked the beginning of an abnormally hot and rather dry period, with temperatures reaching up to 35°C. Of note during this dry stretch, the July 7 hailstorm that partly damaged the grape bunches on some vineyards, thankfully without compromising the quality of the grapes by harvest. The rains in mid-August, allowed the vegetative restart and consequently the veraison and ripening of the grapes.
