VINTAGE CONDITIONS
2022 was the latest in the past 25 years, about 2 weeks later than normal. We had a
proper cold winter with enough rain, that resulted in budbreak that was 2 weeks
late. e earlier part of the season was quite cool, with December showing lower
maximum and minimum temperatures. January was more moderate with a couple
of hot days.We had slow ripening conditions that resulted in concentrated fruit
development and palate weight.
