CLIMATOLOGY

This was one of the most rainy years, January and February were quite normal, but in March t fell 404 ltr.It was not very strong cold, because there were nearly no frost, but it made a continuous cold. April 61 ltr, and May 46 ltr, were very cold and rainy, therefore the outbreak was late on 8.04.18The flowering was also delayed until the first week of June, it was very slow and dispersed and late until the end of June.The summer was generally fresh, except for some days over 35º.Correspondingly the harvest started late or better said in its normal date on September 10th it was very dispersed and we finished on October 10th. I had to stop in between several times, since the rains began in October and in particular on 21.10.18 they fell 200ltr.It has been a year of the most contrary to the previous year 2017, which was a great drought. Only the data of the rain in the vegetative cycle 2017 = 83 ltr (total 386 ltr) comparing it with the vegetative cycle of 2018 = 511 ltr (total 1,064 ltr,), 6 times more, shows how rainy the year was, with its corresponding pressures of fungal pests. Thanks to our ecological, bidodinamic management we knew how to control it, so that it did not affect us in the development of the vineyard and in the quality of the grape.The quantity and quality of the vintage was exceptional, this year we have been given very soft wines, with moderate alcohols and with very elegant Atlantic freshes.
