What undoubtedly made the difference was making the right choice on when to take action on the basis of climate, variety and pedoclimatic conditions. wherever green harvesting and stripping of the leaves were carried out at the right time and in the right way, well-structured, long-lasting wines will be obtaines to make 2013 an excellent vintage!
