2013: concentrated wine !!!
Vintage year review :
The Harvest began the 3rd of October by a good day. The harvest was late but, no worries, it’s not very exceptionnal. The cycle of the vine was late too because of a cold and wet Spring. From the 15 of September, the weather was good so grapes obtained a very nice maturation. During the harvest few showers were here, but the grape hackers kept a good motivation and grapes kept quality.
Tasting advice:
Drink it now. The round and delicate tannins of 2013 vintage are the guarantee of a great evolution and a wine for ageing.

That year in the world…

In the same year it’s also the birth of Prince Georges, Kate and William’s baby.
