The 2013 Vintage – Difficult Beginning; Happy Ending
The long winter led to a late, but speedy bud break, thanks to some
beautiful weeks at the end of April and beginning of May. However, a
hailstorm at the end of May resulted in yield losses in the Käferberg
and Steinmassl vineyards. Flowering in mid-June was relatively on
time. Unfortunately, the weather was not on the favourable side: a
heatwave was followed by cold and damp conditions that strongly
hindered pollination, especially of the main variety, Grüner Veltliner.
The summer of 2013 was one of the five hottest summers in the last
century. An extremely dry period in July was counteracted by rain in
August – just in time for a very good ripening phase to begin.
Ripening was a slow process, so calmness and patience were
important. By November 8th, all of the wines, except for the sweet
ones, were in the cellar. And finally, these were joined at the end of
November by the Auslese and Beerenauslese wines.
