Delegat's vintage down 11 percent in 2019
The wine company said the 2019 vintage is smaller than last year's.
The yield is down 11 percent on last year to 35,500 tonnes, but the company said it has enough inventories to meet sales targets.
Delegat said the grape harvest is below long-term averages due to weather conditions throughout the spring flowering season.
However, warm and dry conditions in the weeks prior to the harvest have resulted in excellent fruit quality in all regions.
