THE 2023 HARVEST HISTORICALLY SHORT !
Intense 46th harvest of the Great Wines! A harvest at a steady pace from Monday August 28 to September 14. 17 uninterrupted days, more than 15 nationalities, 50 to 60 cutters plus our vineyard and cellar teams, working for almost three weeks in the heart of the Gassac Valley.
CLIMATE REVIEW OF THE YEAR
The year is mainly marked by a severe drought with -30% water compared to the average. Looking back, we experienced a dry autumn, a slightly cold winter, light regular rains throughout the spring, ending with a very driest summer with only 20mm of water in July and August!
Thanks to the micro-climate and the care given to the vines by our teams, the berries benefited from slow and healthy ripening, despite the drought and, above all, the heatwave that occurred the day before the harvest.
