An exceptional and gourmet 2023 vintage is on the way!
October marked the end of the harvest period for our winegrowers.
2023 was a surprising year, but less and less atypical, with periods of heatwave persisting into the late season. These conditions led to slow and heterogeneous ripening, forcing the harvest to be spread out over time.
The weather was then favorable for good harvesting conditions, but quantities were down. On some hillside plots, the hot spell caused up to 30% loss.
As for the quality of the vintage, the winemakers are unanimous: it’s a nice surprise! Beautifully ripe, full-bodied, with supple tannins and a degree of alcohol slightly above 2022, which adds roundness and deliciousness. A concentrated, gourmet wine.
We’ll have to wait a few more months for the first tasting…
