Description:
The winter preceding the 2011 harvest was cold with rainfall significantly above the annual average, and the spring growing season was 2-3 degrees colder than normal. Due to such cool climatic conditions, the vines awakened from their winter hibernation late, and their development during the season was delayed by two weeks to a month. As a result, the harvest of most blocks was delayed by up to a month. Mild weather during the growing season enabled the development of pleasant flavors, which should be reflected in the quality of Flowers Lotus Merlot .
