Cool rain in March and April delayed the budding but the extremely warm weather which followed allowed a successful flowering in June. Then a spell of tropical heat and drought set in to make this the hottest summer for 100 years! A few showers at the end of July were unable to replenish the shortage of water in the soil. August was warm and sunny and in September autumn mists encouraged the development of botrytis which then spread like wildfire while the sunny weather continued right through to the end of the vintage.

The BA wines produced from this vintage had real depth and concentration of fruit, but also enough acidity to cope with longevity. Aged Riesling of this ilk is seen as some of the best in the world. Honeyed rich and smooth. Not so often available these days.
