The 2022 vintage was characterised by a very dry winter, with the vegetative cycle of the vines resuming very early in March. Spring saw abundant flowering, but was marked in June by severe hail in and around Laudun, which affected many plots. The summer was very dry, resulting in a high-quality harvest, with beautifully aromatic rosés, reds with high tannin potential and rich, flavoursome whites.
