The Loire Valley's vines enjoyed excellent health throughout the season, reaching their milestones a good two weeks earlier than usual. We can now report that harvesting took place under ideal conditions and grapes are showing good levels of ripeness. While yields were somewhat affected by April frosts and last autumn's dry weather, still some 2.3 million hl of Loire Valley PDO and PGI grapes have made it to the wineries. This is a rise of 6% compared to 2016, but still less than we would expect in an average year. Variable volumes are luckily offset by consistently excellent quality across all threecolors.
