1913 Wine

1913 Wine

Our opinion on the 1913 vintage: a complicated but excellent year for Champagne. Like the previous vintage, the 1913 wines are rather classic. However, the taste quality of 1913 wines is slightly above the 1912 vintage. The 1913 vintage wines are now highly sought after by collectors as they are considered rare.

The Bordeaux region experienced a series of misfortunes in 1913, with the arrival of insects and diseases, combined with a cool summer. The result was an abundant but poor quality harvest. The few bottles that have survived to this day offer dry wines with sour flavors.

In Burgundy, 1913 was characterized by constant humidity and lack of seasonality, which harmed the harvest quality. Additionally, the region was also affected by downy mildew, a fungal disease that significantly reduced the quantity of grapes harvested.

The Champagnes from 1913 are of excellent quality, making it a good year for the vineyard. However, yields were low, which impacted the quantity of wine produced.

In the Rhône Valley, both 1912 and 1913 vintages are considered poor for the quality of wines produced. However, these two difficult years were not an isolated case, as many wine regions in France experienced very unfavorable weather conditions for vine growing and the production of wines for aging.
