In keeping with Antoine Lespès, analysis and growth supervisor at Domaine Lafage simply exterior Perpignan, the common rainfall at this Roussillon property between 2010 and 2023 was simply 550mm per yr. These previous few years have been significantly dry: in 2021 and 2022 there was 340mm. In 2023, simply 240mm – ‘like Marrakesh,’ says Lespès.
Fortunately, Roussillon has a pure defence towards drought: 50% of the area’s vines are over 50 years outdated. Outdated vines with deep, well-established root methods pump water from under the bottom, as an alternative of relying solely on that which falls from the sky. And this is only one benefit of getting loads of venerable outdated vegetation.
