Vintage description
2022 was an extremely dry and warm year.
In 2022, we experienced a significant precipitation deficit. The winter was relatively warm with little precipitation, which led to a slight cooling in spring. But from June to August, we were plagued by one heatwave after another, with temperatures reaching almost 37 degrees.
Temperatures normalized somewhat in September, but the drought remained. During the harvest from the beginning to the middle of September, we had mostly dry and very sunny weather. It remained very dry again until the end of the year.
