The weather conditions of the vintage

In April, the vineyard was in a perfect condition of health. The flowering process began early and took place in favorable conditions. The early part of the vine cycle, with its exceptionally hot, dry and sunny weather, helped enhance all of the high quality attributes of the vintage. The veraison started at the end of July. Optimal conditions favored a fast, even process, and by the end of August, the juices were already deep-colored. The crop stood up astonishingly well to the spells of rain that followed, and the health of the vines remained stable. With the arrival of September, the weather alternated between unsettled spells with rain and dry, windy conditions, blowing hot and cold alternately. Sugar levels rose quickly.

The picking of the Merlot began on 28th September and finished on the 30th. The Cabernet Sauvignon was harvested from the 10th to 13th October, while the Petit Verdot was brought in on 5th and 6th October.

The cellar master’s comment

We harvested very high quality grapes thanks to particularly favorable weather conditions which enabled the grapes to reach optimal ripeness in each plot. The vinifications went smoothly and were carried out using alternate pump-overs, punching down of the cap and rack and returns. The post-fermentation maceration brought flesh and volume to wines that already displayed good harmony.

Tasting notes

This 2016 vintage is silky and elegant, with nice ripe fruit and slightly spicy note. The tannins are fine with a nice well-balanced finish.

Harvesting dates 2016 : Merlot : from September 28th to 30th, 
Cabernet-Sauvignon : from October 10th to 13th,

Blend : 75% Merlot, 25% Cabernet Sauvignon

Pretty funny
Format: Hardcover
The book gives us a more focused outlook on Chieg Wiggum. Full of its funny moments, I`d recomend this to huge Simpsons fans as it seems the shows writers managed to give us another hit.

Not the best, but not the worst either
Format: Hardcover
By any means not the funniest book in the series, only the one on Krusty the Clown was more un-funny; but still a worthy addition to your collection and, just like all the others from the series providing a retrospective of anecdotes you might have forgotten.

Not that great
Huge "The Simpsons" fan. I watched all the episodes and read a lot of the comics and enjoy most. This one however was quite boring. Turns out I'm just not a big fan of Chief Wiggum. I really enjoyed The "Homer" and "Bart" book. But not this one. Maybe if you love Wiggum you'll love it. If you're not too fond of him then I wouldn't buy it.
