Looking back at the 2014 vintage
Budburst: 2 April for Chardonnay and 5 April for Pinot Noir
Flowering: 8 June for Chardonnay and 10 June for Pinot Noir
Start of the harvest: 8 September
The vines rested throughout winter under the cover of rain, with 27 days of rainfall in January alone.
The arrival of spring brought milder weather, triggering an early start to budburst. With a break in the rain, May and June provided ideal conditions for successful flowering.
Summer brought warmer weather as the rain returned. The grapes were slow to ripen, retaining acidity levels and developing complex aromas.
We harvested in September.
With the Pinot Noir around 10 potential alcohol, and the Chardonnay perfectly ripe, the grapes were simply stunning.
