The fruit remained healthy throughout the season and ripened steadily, although the lack of rain early on meant that soil moisture needed careful attention.<\/p>\n

Growth started early, with the vines becoming active in early March and budbreak following by the end of the month. April brought plenty of warmth, pushing the vines ahead quickly, until a brief cold spell around April 19\u201320 checked progress and caused some localized damage in lower-lying sites. From that point on, the season settled into a smooth rhythm. Flowering came in around the third week of May and passed quickly, setting the crop up evenly.<\/p>\n

The early summer months were consistently warm and dry, which suited the vines well and allowed the bunches to develop without pressure. A hailstorm in early July had little impact overall, but a second storm in mid-August, close to harvest, trimmed yields slightly.<\/p>\n

Picking began on August 29 with Pinot Grigio, in settled weather that allowed for a calm and orderly harvest. The fruit came in healthy and ripe, with a natural balance between sugar and acidity. pH levels were a touch higher than in 2023, but still very much in line with what we would expect.<\/p>\n

In the end, 2024 is best described as a smaller but high-quality vintage, where the crop level and fruit profile came together nicely. In terms of how the season unfolded, it sits comfortably alongside years such as 2022, 2018, 2011 and 2008.[\/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space]\n DATA SHEET 2024<\/span>\n <\/a>[\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row row_content_width=”grid” css=”.vc_custom_1698656631283{padding-top: 70px !important;padding-bottom: 70px !important;}”][vc_column]

\n\t\t[vc_column_text css=””]2022 witnessed notable shifts in weather patterns. The year began with temperature inversions and a prolonged dry period with below-average rainfall. Budding commenced around 10th<\/sup> April and flowering was earlier than usual, with the first blossoms already open by 19th<\/sup> May. Spring experienced minimal rainfall, a trend that continued through the warm, dry summer months, leading to drought in certain areas. Irrigation became necessary, especially in the plains, but nevertheless, the grapevine cycle proceeded normally, with veraison of the pinot grigio around 11th<\/sup> July. August and, notably September, saw rain which contributed to excellent ripening. The final quarter of the year remained dry, with minimal water supply. Grape quality was excellent, with above average sugar accumulation, and total acidity and pH in line with historical precedents. The wines present a round, intricate profile in their early years, with excellent ageing potential, particularly in the case of Merlot.[\/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space]\n DATA SHEET 2022<\/span>\n <\/a>\t<\/div>\n<\/div>

\n\t\t[vc_column_text css=””]January and February recorded normal temperatures and optimal rainfall, while March was drier with unstable temperatures. Lymph rise began in the middle of the month. Late frosts hit fruit trees on 7th and 8th April, but fortunately did not lead to significant damage to the vines.<\/p>\n

Budding began towards the second half of April, starting with chardonnay, sauvignon and tocai friulano. The month of May, together with May 2019,\u00a0 was one of the coldest in the last 30 years, with the lowest temperatures since 1991. Flowering began in the first week of June as temperatures rose and despite low rainfall, ended quickly thanks to the good water resources of the soils. Veraison began at the end of July – beginning of August, late compared to the previous year. August presented average temperatures. The first two weeks of September were dry, and we picked a large part of the white grapes in ideal weather conditions. The last three months of the year continued dry.<\/p>\n

Grape quality was very good, in particular for medium and medium-late ripening grapes. Acidity levels and pH remained good, thanks to the temperature excursions that characterized the lead in to the harvest.[\/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space]\n DATA SHEET 2021<\/span>\n <\/a>\t<\/div>\n<\/div>

\n\t
\n\t\t[vc_column_text]The first months of 2020 brought above-average temperatures and minimal rainfall, with the brief exception of a wet period in March. Lymph rise began irregularly, due to the drought of the winter months, towards the middle of the month.\u00a0 The early hours of 1st\u00a0 and 2nd April saw temperatures dip below 0\u00b0C across much of the valley areas, but fortunately, as many varieties had yet to sprout, no notable damage was observed and budding began with the subsequent rise in temperatures. Well-distributed rain in the months of May and June did not disturb flowering, which occurred around May 18th and lasted to the end of the month. Temperatures went up in June and veraison took place in July, earlier than the previous year. August presented average temperatures and rainfall. Our 2020 harvest started with pinot grigio on 2nd September and wrapped up on the 30th with Merlot.<\/p>\n

The last months of the year witnessed heavy rainfall and a substantial accumulation of water resources. This vintage is remembered for the superior quality of the grapes, which had excellent sugar-acid balance and captivating aromatic expression. The wines exhibit freshness and elegance in their initial stages, and promise exceptional ageing potential.[\/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space]\n DATA SHEET 2020<\/span>\n <\/a>\t<\/div>\n<\/div>

\n \n\t\t<\/span>\n\t\t<\/span>\n\t<\/span>\n\t2017<\/span>\n<\/h5>\n
\n\t
\n\t\t[vc_column_text]The year 2017 unfolded with a sequence of extreme weather phenomena. From the end of winter, and notably in February and March, above average temperatures were recorded, leading to bud break approximately ten days earlier than usual. These higher temperatures persisted into early April and coincided with an absence of rain which ensured excellent bud burst and uniformity in bud development.<\/p>\n

Later in the month, during the night between the 20th and 21st, temperatures dropped abruptly, prompting a late frost that caused considerable damage to the already advanced buds. As a result, some vineyards in the valley and in the Isonzo DOC experienced significant losses, and an imbalance emerged between the hillsides and the vines on the plain. While the higher vineyards maintained a slight lead into the harvest, those affected by the frost had delay ripening, aligning the harvest date with the seasonal average. The summer was marked by warm daytime temperatures and temperate nights, which created almost ideal conditions for optimal grape ripening and healthy fruit. Varieties such as pinot grigio and chardonnay displayed excellent ripeness, while others, particularly sauvignon and friulano, stood out for above average aromatic intensity. The wines have higher than usual pH, moderate sugar content, well-balanced acid structure and a composition rich in aromatic compounds.[\/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space]\n DATA SHEET 2017<\/span>\n <\/a>\t<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div>[\/vc_column][\/vc_row]<\/p>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
