Vintage Conditions:
Vintage 2023 was one of the latest ripening and cool, wet seasons for many years. Both winter and spring brought about higher than average rainfalls, ensuring that the vines had plenty of water in the soils to draw from at budburst. However, the cool wet spring resulted in a delay to budburst, pushing back ripening more than 2 weeks later than average in many cases.
