A word from the Cellar Master
The summer of 2018 was the driest on record: virtually no rain from mid-June until the harvest, and then again until the end of October. We began the harvest on 27 August, three days after the official starting date for Mareuil-surAy, and ended on 8 September. The quality of the harvest was satisfactory on the whole, with yields sometimes exceeding 12,000 kilos per hectare, which was not surprising given the very favourable weather conditions throughout the year.
