NOTES OF THE YEAR
The winter preceding the 2003 harvest was very wet. Flowering took place in late May, with warm and bright time, under conditions regarded as one of the best in years.
The first two weeks of August provided the intense summer heat that often precedes a great wine Vintage Port. The second half of August was cooler and two days of rain perfectly timely eventually favor the ripening of the grapes at the end of the month.
The time of the grape harvest in September was warm, dry and yields were uniform for all castes, ensuring balance and complexity in the wines.
