1981
Wines of bigger weight, higher phenol and extract levels than 1980. Slower developers with generally lower pH’s. A wet winter in 1980 followed by an early budburst and flowering and a warm summer, but a cool, unsettled picking season.

Forward, fruity wines of mid-weight and with elegant characters. Cool spring and late summer with showery autumn.
