- Below average rainfall fell on our sangio sites during winter / spring while December rainfall was much needed as ahead of us was summers bright start up with a heatwave upon us in early February. March gave the sites its blessing with cool days and nights for perfect slower ripening conditions to produce a beautifully elegantly structured sangio.
