- Grape varieties:
- 100% Chardonnay
- Average vintage temperature:
- 14.3 ºC

2013 was a rainy year in terms of rainfall, with precipitation concentrated in late March exceeding 150 l/m² and marking a clearly humid vegetative period, in contrast to a dry summer ripening phase.
Temperatures were moderate at the start of summer and warmer in October, which caused a delay in ripening but, thanks to this mild climate, allowed optimal grape ripening.

2018
- Grape varieties:
- 100% Chardonnay
- Average vintage temperature:
- 15.3 ºC
- Rainfall:
- 801.8 mm
2018 was a rainy year, marked by accumulated precipitation well above average following the dry 2015–2017 cycle. Apart from a rainless July, which helped preserve excellent sanitary condition during veraison of the earliest varieties, rainfall in August and September allowed a slow ripening without extreme heat episodes during the harvest.
This climate, combined with careful decision-making in the vineyard, resulted in a later harvest while maintaining optimal grape quality.
