Harvest report: the harvest of white grapes started on february 23 i. E. 20 days later than previous years. Potential alcohol levels were below historic values. White and rose varieties are very expressive with refreshing acidity. Spring was very cold with lower average temperatures as compared to prior years: 1. 5 c° (34. 7°f) for september 5 c° (41°f) for october 2c° (35. 6°f) for november and 1 c° (33. 8°f) for december. These temperature variations delayed bud brake and flowering by approximately 20 to 25 days (depending on each variety) as compared to an average year. From a technical perspective 2017 will be remembered as the most challenging harvest of the last 30 years: low yields (close to 40% lower) due to unfavorable climate conditions rainfall of 27. 56 inches (700 mm) during the vegetative period and a 20-day delay in maturity. However we managed to make wines of a unique character! Vineyards: 100% of the grapes used to make this wi
