GOOD TIME FOR WINE?
Contrary to popular belief, a good year doesn’t necessarily
indicate a better wine.
A good year refers to the amount of sun the grapes received. In
such a year, the grape skin is thicker and there is a higher tannin
content, resulting in a dry taste and a full body. You should
leave a wine like this in the cellar.
A “bad year” simply means that there was a rainy
summer and you shouldn’t keep that wine in the cellar too
long.
So it's all about the weather, and often during a summer, even
before harvesting the grapes, it is already clear if the wine
“year” will be a good one.
