The Spring of 2021 was rainy with some average mildew pressure and the vines reacted well in terms of respect for water needs during the beginning of

the vegetative season. The temperatures over the course of the summer were quite mild, with only a few days above 100ºF. Maturation was quite slow, promising a great 2021 harvest
