We were able to complete the grape harvest on September 26, marking the earliest end of the harvest in our family history. It was not an easy year for us. After the late frost, which ultimately reduced our harvest by around 40%, the weather in Langenlois was characterized by sufficient rainfall throughout. In the vineyard, it was important to work precisely in order to counteract fungal diseases and thus further yield losses. The plants damaged by frost were also visibly weakened during the year. The early flowering and galloping vegetation already suggested an early start to the harvest, which was already at the end of August, as in the 2018 vintage. A heatwave brought us temperatures above 30 degrees Celsius again, which greatly accelerated sugar ripening and motivated us to act quickly. After two weeks of picking, the heavy rainfall throughout Austria arrived, bringing us 250 mm of rain. Fortunately, a large part of the harvest was already in the cellar. We were spared the floods and after a six-day break from harvesting, we focused on Riesling. We were able to complete the harvest within another week.
