At the same time, we would keep an eye on the production in order to avoid excesive productions. This way, we managed to harvest 6000 kilos per hectare. The grape was very good and plentiful, even for old vines in Soria.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The climate in February was specially warm and we had to wait till March to feel the cold.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Then came some snow, like the one we registered on the 16th. The heavy rainfall of April led to a sprout on day 21st, which was something never seen before in Soria, around ten to fifteen days before when compared year-on-year. These rains protected the plants against spring frost. In June, a dry regime came after the previous rainy period. The flowering occurred on June 15th, and the veraison could be perceived towards the end of July, keeping those ten days ahead of the usual dates.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">August went normally, being very hot and without rain. On the 31st, the frost appeared in the vineyard. In September we noted that the sun was no longer warming as it usually does in the final days of the summer in Soria. In Autumn, minimum temperatures ranging between 5\u00ba and 0\u00baC were recorded. And on September 20th, 33 liters of water were collected, which came to homogenize the level of ripeness of the grape.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong>Bunches were harvested from 1st to 16th October.<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong>The wine:<\/strong> It shows a spontaneous and direct fruit expression, being at the same time very frank.

May brought important frosts on 4th and 6th day.There was also an intense coldness in spring which made the vineyard lose the sprouts and the first buds , but not the second ones. This fact ensured the plant well- being and it was not even affected by the \u201chydric stress\u201d provoked by the registered rains.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The vineyard as corollary produced few grapes but with no suffering from the plant.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Vintage 2019 was characterised by summer weather as hot and very dry in the Sorian soils. The heat wave registered by the end of June ( flowering happened on 25 June) was 40oC for 10 days and the same happened in the last days of July.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">By 10 August 50%of veraison had been completed.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">There was no rain till the first half of September when there were 40 liters of water accumulation.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The vineyard had a great vegetative growth in its leaves and stems in spite of the strong heat.

Winter was cold with intense rains, a lot of snow in January, February, March and even on 10 and 11 April. The vegetation woke up as usual, the almond trees flourished on 3 April and the bud break was noted on 27 April.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Spring was characterized by rains, cold and the frosts which happened 1 and 13 May. That situation provoked important changes in the growing rhythms of the plants.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The winter weather lasted until the middle of June. On 19 June, sun and summer weather appeared as a consequence, the vines started to flourish on 21 June, this cycle lasted until the beginning of July.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">In summer there were moderate temperatures (30oC) and this season was marked by rains and some scattered storms. This condition made the plants grow and improve their vegetative rhythms until the end of July (normally the vegetation stops its natural growth at the beginning of July). Thus, this situation is more typical in an Atlantic vegetative cycle than in the Ribera del Duero.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">From August to October the weather was dry with normal temperatures and many sunny days. This provoked a slow ripening and the making of complex aromas in the Tinto Fino.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The weather in the vintage 2018 gave a nice atmosphere and a vegetative quantity in the Soria vines. Consequently, their wines show generosity and intensity in nose with hints of red fruits together with refreshing vegetal notes and a smooth mouth-feel.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><style type=\"text\/css\">.fusion-accordian  #accordion-698-1 .panel-58a35260213581ecb .panel-title a{}.fusion-accordian  #accordion-698-1 .panel-58a35260213581ecb .toggle-content{}<\/style><div class=\"fusion-panel panel-default panel-58a35260213581ecb fusion-toggle-no-divider\"><div class=\"panel-heading\"><h4 class=\"panel-title toggle\" id=\"toggle_58a35260213581ecb\"><a aria-expanded=\"false\" aria-controls=\"58a35260213581ecb\" role=\"button\" data-toggle=\"collapse\" data-parent=\"#accordion-698-1\" data-target=\"#58a35260213581ecb\" href=\"#58a35260213581ecb\"><span class=\"fusion-toggle-icon-wrapper\" aria-hidden=\"true\"><i class=\"fa-fusion-box active-icon awb-icon-minus\" aria-hidden=\"true\"><\/i><i class=\"fa-fusion-box inactive-icon awb-icon-plus\" aria-hidden=\"true\"><\/i><\/span><span class=\"fusion-toggle-heading\">Ant\u00eddoto 2017<\/span><\/a><\/h4><\/div><div id=\"58a35260213581ecb\" class=\"panel-collapse collapse \" araia-labelledby=\"toggle_58a35260213581ecb\"><div class=\"panel-body toggle-content fusion-clearfix\">\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong>Vine Origin:<\/strong> Ant\u00eddoto winegrowers cultivate under established criteria of the winery.

However, the area of Soria, due to a usually later grapevines\u2019 flowering did not suffer from this frost. Winter was dry and not very cold. Spring was dry with cool temperatures. There was a gradual sprouting from 20 April to 5 May. The flowering happened early and very quick, from 5 to 12 June, so we could assume that we would have a homogeneous maturation and a quick harvest.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Just before the summer starts, at the end of June, there was an unusual summer heat wave for the time, with temperatures that reached 38o during a period of fifteen days, which caused the grapes to acquire a thick skin and have little pulp. In July we returned to \u201cnormal\u201d maximum temperatures, minimum ones were pretty cold, and we had 70 liters of rain (very expected) on July 7, 8 and 9. We had an early ripening, it started on 25 July, fifteen days in advance.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">August was characterized by rather hot days and cool nights. We noted 50 liters of rain on days 27, 28 and 29, which allowed to keep the vines cool despite the general drought of the year.

The snow covered the rockiest parts of Somosierra and Picos de Urbi\u00f3n. Under these conditions, the vineyard began to get out of its hibernating state in February with the \u201cweeping\u201d, the first living manifestation of the vine.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The sprouting took place on the 3 May, following a very hot week from the 7 to the 11 May. However, the plants were threatened by the frosts happened from the 20 to the 25 of this month. The plant mass strength was tested when this sudden temperature change came.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">In summer, the Soria mountainous scenery and the groundwater from its valleys usually calm down the vine vigor. Also, some temperature drops, noted at the end of July among the 20 and the 28 at 15\u00baC at night, allowed the vine to gain strength.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The \u201cveraison\u201d took place exactly on the 28 July.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">With regard to the rains, we noted 30 liters on the 21 July and 43 liters on 24 August, rainwater which stopped the growing cycle and supported the homogeneous growth of the vineyard as a whole.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">September was at normal temperature, but with more moderate maximum temperature than usual. In the very beginning of autumn, frosts on the vineyard were seen on the 19 and 24 day. This situation with cool mornings and nights preserving the grape flavors is very common in this Soria part of the Ribera del Duero DO.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">In spite of the extreme summer conditions, the fruit of the vine had ripened smoothly. The spring frosts reduced the volume of grape in the vineyard and encouraged the ripening process of the grapes, a remarkable aspect in Ant\u00eddoto 2015 wines.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><style type=\"text\/css\">.fusion-accordian  #accordion-698-1 .panel-192f6bc55b2f3c67e .panel-title a{}.fusion-accordian  #accordion-698-1 .panel-192f6bc55b2f3c67e .toggle-content{}<\/style><div class=\"fusion-panel panel-default panel-192f6bc55b2f3c67e fusion-toggle-no-divider\"><div class=\"panel-heading\"><h4 class=\"panel-title toggle\" id=\"toggle_192f6bc55b2f3c67e\"><a aria-expanded=\"false\" aria-controls=\"192f6bc55b2f3c67e\" role=\"button\" data-toggle=\"collapse\" data-parent=\"#accordion-698-1\" data-target=\"#192f6bc55b2f3c67e\" href=\"#192f6bc55b2f3c67e\"><span class=\"fusion-toggle-icon-wrapper\" aria-hidden=\"true\"><i class=\"fa-fusion-box active-icon awb-icon-minus\" aria-hidden=\"true\"><\/i><i class=\"fa-fusion-box inactive-icon awb-icon-plus\" aria-hidden=\"true\"><\/i><\/span><span class=\"fusion-toggle-heading\">Ant\u00eddoto 2014<\/span><\/a><\/h4><\/div><div id=\"192f6bc55b2f3c67e\" class=\"panel-collapse collapse \" araia-labelledby=\"toggle_192f6bc55b2f3c67e\"><div class=\"panel-body toggle-content fusion-clearfix\">\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Origin of the vines: purchased under the growing criteria of the winery.

It was getting into September and the temperatures began to drop in the days leading up to St. Matthew&#8217;s day. At the same time, the rain recorded was enough to hydrate a vineyard that had experienced periods of drought in spring and, in general, a summer with little water although the temperatures had been mild. This was essential for the maturation of the bunches, before harvest.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">A unique, perfect combination to create a legendary year of vintage.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Ant\u00eddoto 2014 displays a surprising expression of ripe fruit on the nose, without excessive maturation, with a subtle woody aroma that provides precision and clarity to the whole. On the palate it is generous, \u2018gargantuan\u2019 (Sourdais is reminded of the writer Rabelais, born near his hometown of Chinon, Loire) and maintains a cool and silky balance, distinguished by the \u2018terroir\u2019 of Soria, whose altitude softens the summer rigour.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Ant\u00eddoto 2014.
