After a rather mild winter, the 2015 winemaking year was marked by contrasts. Spring began with an absolutely glacial spell, followed abruptly by an extended heatwave from mid-May to mid-August, accompanied by an exceptionally sunny period and drought. This led to hydric stress and varying rates of maturation in different areas. August 2015 was the warmest month of August since 1961. Happily, the last half of August brought an end to the drought with the arrival of rain, restarting the maturation. The harvest began on September 7 under welcome sunshine. The excellent health of the grapes made it possible to conduct an optimal picking cycle over nearly three weeks. Tasting the grapes revealed a wonderful generosity, without excess.
