Description
Weather conditions:
The year 2008 began with temperatures that were warmer than normal, and the vegetative period then started under a cool and humid weather, until a rather hot May month which then was followed by a new cooling from June to September. Fortunately, the end of September and the month of October saw a nice late season, favorable to the ripening of the grapes. A vintage of a beautiful acidity in the end, and a perfectly correct maturity.
