1957

Vintage & Style
1957 was a cold, late, and austere vintage. A rainy spring, a cool summer, and very late harvests led to difficult conditions. Reds are under-ripe, lean, nervy, and often harsh. Whites performed better, showing tension, linearity, and some longevity in cooler terroirs. A technical year, appreciated by lovers of acidity.
