CHÂTEAU FERRANDE

2020, a vintage put to the test. • A particularly mild winter, for very early budburst. • A rainy spring with very high pressure from diseases including mildew, all the more difficult during this period of confinement. • A scorching summer without rain until mid-August. May and June were 2 dry and hot months, allowing the beginning of flowering and veraison in good conditions. July and August were marked by strong heat peaks and life-saving storms. • The warm days and cool nights of September allowed good levels of maturity to be reached. The harvest was early (around ten days in advance across the entire vineyard) and carried out in unprecedented sanitary conditions.
