1993
1993 is another example of a year in which better quality was achieved in white wine than in red, as the sauvignon blanc grapes were harvested earlier and were therefore less affected by the rain. It is even a great vintage of Pavillon Blanc which is showing remarkably well today; it combines plenty of freshness with the complexity of a well-developed bouquet. To be enjoyed now. (February 2025)
Climate
After an earlier than normal bud-break, the weather conditions were very favourable for the flowering, which was particularly fast and even. July was very dry but cool ; August was very hot and dry. On 10th September, the quality potential was remarkable. Unfortunately, the harvest was very rainy. (The picking began on 19th September)
