HARVEST 2021 was characterized by scant rainfall in the early
winter months. The vines began to bud at the end of March,
in the midst of cold days with temperatures sometimes
below freezing, which caused cold damage in the
valley floors and on the earliest varieties. A regular
growth followed, favored by ideal weather characterized by
warm, dry, and slightly windy days. As a result,
excellent fruit set was noted, leading to
good bunch structure. The scant rainfall
led to water stress due to the dry climate and still very
high temperatures. The harvest of the early white varieties began
in the second half of August. A good year with a
lower production, but still excellent quality.
