YEAR: 2012
2012 summer was one of the hottest and droughtest season we
ever had in Volpaia and may be in the whole Tuscany.
Temperatures were very often over the average temperatures
of the season and rains that were copious in spring suddenly
disappeared for the all season causing a hydro-stress to the
plants. Rainfall of the first days of September, followed by a
period of good weather permitted a good trend of ripeness.
Yields were very low.
