This vintage was very mild with warm days and cool nights, with good winter and spring rains.
The grapes are handpicked in the early hours following sunrise and transported to the winery. It is then pressed very gently with the juice allowed to settle before transferred to French oak barrels to develop for 9 months, with regular stirring. Every barrel is then tasted and classified; only the finest are selected to bear the name Ithaca.
