VINTAGE
Harvest on 27th September 2021
We escaped the frost episodes in April, but the heavy rains in June and July brought an important pressure of mildew, making 2021 a particularly difficult year.
After a favorable end of season for berry ripening, we started the harvest on September 27th with Pinot noir at 95°Oe, then Chasselas around 77°Oe.
Even if the volumes are slightly below average, 2021 promises to be a very good vintage: structured (low harvest), fruity (fresh year), crystalline (good noble acidity). As if the vines had struggled to give the best of themselves.
