the island, the 2020 vintage
2020 will always be remembered for the pandemic and its consequences. The outbreak of the pandemic paralysed the world and ushered in one of the most complex vintages in history. A cold and rainy winter gave way to an extremely wet and temperate spring and summer, with mildew and powdery mildew pressure like we had not seen for years. The struggle was constant, but even more so if we talk about it from the perspective of organic farming like Vivanco La Isla. We live in the vineyard from May to October. Every dawn. And so on until the grape harvest. The result: less opulent wines, but very frank. Fine, atavistic, delicate and fruity. Representatives of extreme viticulture and of man's work against adversity.
