After an unusually cold and rainy spring<\/strong>, the month of June<\/strong> arrived with a sudden temperature surge<\/strong>. The temperatures<\/strong> exceeded 30 degrees<\/strong> already in the first week, forcing us to quickly adjust the work in the vineyard<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

\"\"The spring chill<\/strong> slowed down the initial phases of vegetative growth<\/strong>, delaying the flowering<\/strong> by about 10 days compared to the average of recent years. However, this delay also had a positive effect: it allowed for slower and more orderly shoot growth, with well-formed and compact bunches<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

Now, however, with the heat<\/strong> becoming immediately intense, it\u2019s the moment for maximum care. Canopy management has become a priority: we defoliate moderately<\/strong> to avoid water stress<\/strong> and work on the vegetative walls<\/strong> to maintain the balance between light and shade<\/strong>. In the vineyard, the scent of summer is already in the air, but the residual soil moisture<\/strong> makes the microclimate<\/strong> delicate: it\u2019s crucial to prevent the onset of fungal diseases<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

Our organic farming<\/strong> requires a respectful yet responsive approach. We don\u2019t use systemic products<\/strong>, which means monitoring each plot<\/strong> constantly and intervening only when necessary, in the most natural way possible.<\/p>\n

If the climate<\/strong> stabilizes in the coming weeks, the prospects for the 2025 vintage<\/strong> remain very good. But, as always, it will be July<\/strong> \u2014 and especially August<\/strong> \u2014 that will tell us whether this will be a vintage to remember<\/strong>.<\/p>\n
