The Barossa Valley’s 2022 vintage was generally mild, with the early growing season punctuated by light Spring rains, providing essential moisture for vine growth. As summer progressed, moderate temperatures and gentle breezes allowed for even ripening conditions. The absence of extreme heat ensured excellent acid retention and the development of well-balanced flavours. The mild autumn extended the ripening period, contributing to optimal grape maturity for Grenache and Mataro. In summary, the weather during the 2022 vintage provided favourable conditions, producing wines reflecting the essence of the Barossa Valley
