1997
Vintage
The
year began with highly unsettled weather followed by a very
long spring drought with several Foehn wind episodes which contributed
to enhance the dryness of the soil.
Anyway, after March temperatures lowered all through April,
while the water emergency lasted all through the summer which
was recorded as one of the driest in the century.
September turned out to be rather favourable to maturation which
came to completion well ahead of its time.
The wines
1997 is undoubtedly an exceptional year, in the strict sense
of the word, due to this year’s unique climatic conditions.
This resulted into extraordinary wines, but with unusual high
qualities for the whole region.
Rich, round taste, velvety and soft tannin, moderate acidity
make these wines unique especially in the early years. |
