Climate trend
In theory it is a minor vintage, rather cool and rainy. In practice, although March, April and May were very rainy, the summer that followed was more stable with average seasonal temperatures. September brought more rain at the end of the first decade. Then the harvest period was dry, favouring the completion of the grapes maturation.
