The 2021–2022 vintage was particularly challenging. The mega drought of recent years has persisted, making the situation increasingly difficult, not only in rainfed vineyards but now also in irrigated vineyards where there is no longer enough water to cover the needs of the vines. The spring was mostly mild, with normal temperatures but some frosts in mountain and coastal areas. These conditions resulted in unevenphenological stages, which meant the evolution of the ripening had to be followed very closely. This vintage was warmer than 2021 and yields were lower, heavily impacted by the lack of water. Intense work had to be done in the winery to receive smaller batches given the unevenness of the ripening in the vineyards. The wines from the 2021–2022 vintage are concentrated, with good tannin and appropriate acidity, displaying an interesting balance between freshness and ripeness
