| Tasting note |
2015 was characterized by a rather late bud break, and rapid, uniform flowering, during the first two weeks of June, in superb conditions (very low rainfall and slightly above average temperatures). July was very hot (with temperatures approaching heatwave levels between 30 June and 6 July) and dry (20 mm of rain, much like 2010). However, August was very wet (90 mm average rainfall) compared to the last 15 years and the onset of ripening (late July/early August) was fast and uniform. The disparate rains in August and September affected the vineyard in varying ways without impairing the very good overall quality of the 2015 vintage in Bordeaux. |
