Météo
The 2024 vintage promises to be a landmark year, combining finesse, balance and aromatic sparkle. After a relatively mild winter, spring conditions were generally favourable, with uniform, early flowering, heralding a promising potential for quality. The summer was characterised by a fine climatic dynamic. Although the first part was punctuated by a few storms, these ensured precious water reserves, supporting the vine’s development. Then, a hot, dry August helped the grapes to ripen gradually and evenly, ensuring optimum concentration of aromas and tannins. The alternation of sunny days and cool nights in August and September played a key role in the balance of the vintage, preserving a fine acidity and providing remarkable depth of flavour. The harvest, which ran from 23rd September to 7th October, was optimal, allowing us to pick grapes that were perfectly ripe, combining freshness with intense aromatic expression. Thanks to meticulous selection and expert work in the vineyard, the 2024 vintage is shaping up to be a dazzling year, in which each grape variety expresses its full potential.
