2021 started with a rather cool but extremely humid winter, similar to 2020. The early budburst was steady and consistent. Spring was cold and dry with tem- perature below the average for the season, creating significant frost. Optimum conditions came back at the end of may.<\/p>\n

However, between mid june and mid july the unstable weather conditions led to the development of cryptogamic disease.<\/p>\n

The dry weather of the four last weeks of august was essential for the ripening. The anthocyanic richness of the skins and the ripening of the tannins were pro- mising. The merlot was harvested first. The chaotic weather since the budburst nibbled a rather important part of the yield, but produced well balanced wines<\/p>\n
