\n\t\t\tA 'Grand Vine' in Boundary Conditions<\/span>\n\t\t<\/h4>\n
\n
<\/div>\n <\/div>\n \t\t\t<\/div>[vc_column_text]Although the Consejo Regulador qualified 2019 as an exceptional vintage, nothing seemed less certain considering the year\u00b4s weather. Not one drop of rain fell between December and 18 April and budding was drawn out throughout the cold and humid end of April and into May.<\/p>\n

The heat wave that started on 30 May quickly brought about flowering, which started on 4 June, but lasted a long time, foreshadowing a small harvest. Midflowering occurred on 18 June at El Sacramento. Weather-wise, it was a typical summer with hot dry air and some scattered showers compensating for the dry winter.<\/p>\n

Significant rains on 26 August, 10 September, and 16 September made the period leading up to the harvest fraught with danger. Prevailing winds helped bring the grapes to optimal maturation in a healthy state.<\/p>\n

The harvest for the reds stretched out from 23 September to 8 October. All the key events of this year\u00b4s vegetative cycle were drawn out; this great vintage was clearly produced in boundary conditions.<\/p>\n

The wine is full bodied, with potent fruit aromas.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][vc_column width=”1\/3″][vc_single_image image=”12279″ img_size=”full” alignment=”center”][\/vc_column][vc_column width=”1\/3″][vc_empty_space]
