The winter and early spring of 2018 brought rainfall and temperatures typical for the season. Soil moisture levels were positive, ensuring sufficient water for the initial stages of the growing cycle, while the accumulation of cold hours was more than adequate for a healthy budburst. No extreme weather events, such as frost or hail, were recorded.

By mid-spring and into early summer, rainfall increased to about 50% above the thirty-year average, creating ideal conditions for vigorous vine growth and berry development. The clusters, however, were slightly smaller than usual due to fewer berries, a result of environmental factors during the floral induction of spring 2017. Consequently, grape yields were around 10% lower than the previous year.

By mid-January, the rains had ceased, and no significant weather events occurred until the end of the harvest. February rainfall was about 30% below normal. Ripening advanced slowly yet steadily, reaching full maturity across all varieties. The resulting wines showed lower alcohol levels than in the previous four years, with excellent balance, vibrant aromatic intensity, and rich color. Harvest began on February 6—slightly later than usual—and concluded on March 21, as is customary.
