On Thursday april 17th in the afternoon it finally happened. We started harvesting the Malbec grapes with a total of 25 people for 1.5 days and got a total of 12.000 kgs, well below of the expected 18.000 kgs. Due to the frost on Monday and strong humidity in Februray (it rained in 4 weeks as much as the entire year) we had less and more concentrated grapes. All vineyard producers of the region had the same challenge to face. It is a fact that the 2008 vintage in the Mendoza region will bring much less wine production than average
