Description

The winter was again very mild. The
abundant rain in September and October
had ended the drought and there was
also above-average rain in November,
December and particularly in January.
February was very warm and dry, but
March and April again brought plenty of
rain and April was also quite cool with
some frost days, and the vegetation, which
had started very early, was slowed down.
May, June and July were warm, without
extreme temperatures and very dry. The
vines thrived. Rarely have we seen such
large leaves and branches. Flowering
started rather late compared to the last
years, but proceeded very quickly and was
finished around June 18th
