A dry start to the growing cycle saw reduced budbreak and production, following cold days (-4°C) and incidents of frost in March. A warm spring and use of precision irrigation helped the vines to recover and develop fully, followed by a “spectacular July”, with extraordinarily cool nighttime temperatures that rarely surpassed 14°C-16°C, resulting in optimum maturation conditions. The harvest began on 2nd August and finished on 21st September, producing excellent fruit despite two punishingly hot weeks in August, and lower than average volumes.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Givino","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53243247526218,"sku":"5601012004786","price":12.8,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0842\/4747\/8602\/files\/herdadesossego.png?v=1762444780"},{"product_id":"macanita-tinto-2023","title":"Maçanita Tinto 2023","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eA bold yet refined Douro red, brimming with aromas of black cherry, wild herbs, and crushed violets, underpinned by hints of graphite, cocoa, and liquorice.

Meticulous attention to detail was required in the vineyards throughout the growing cycle to help the vines withstand the heat and drought: careful canopy management to prevent grape sunburn, control of cover crops to prevent competition with the vines for the scarce water available and selective green harvesting to reduce the vines’ load and prevent excessive stress.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Givino","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53501953212746,"sku":"5601007478509","price":23.5,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0842\/4747\/8602\/files\/callabriga.png?v=1764694866"},{"product_id":"fonseca-terra-prima-organic-reserve-port-nv","title":"Fonseca Terra Prima Organic Reserve Port NV","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eA wonderfully rich, concentrated Port with great flavour and texture.
