2006 VINTAGE:

The harvest began on 27 September in bright sunshine… but after a season of climatic ups and downs. There was a heat wave in July, followed by an August that seemed like November, until excellent weather in early September saved the crop. Two days of warm rain just one week before the vintage put everyone in their starting blocks and so set the rhythm for the harvest. This was a true vintners’ vintage, where rigorous and skilful vinification has been rewarded with success. There are some very fine Gewurztraminers.
