Zone by zone

The 2025 season zone by zone

The season zone by zone: the region as a whole first, then its appellations. Each is compared with its own mean over the previous ten years.

Only the unusual is coloured: warmth and September rain are compared with each zone's mean over the previous ten years; a frost means a minimum of −2 °C or lower after 10 April. An uncoloured indicator means “as usual”, a dashed one means no data. Tap an indicator for the full sentence; the figures by region are in the table on the vintage years page.

Kakheti

About these numbers

Source: ERA5-Land reanalysis, precipitation from ERA5 (Copernicus Climate Change Service) — a gridded model, not weather stations in the vineyards. Years are compared with the mean of the previous ten, not with the 1991–2020 climate normal: the climate has shifted, and against that normal 14 of the last 20 years would read as warmer than usual — true about warming, but not about the year. This is not a rating of wine and not a drinking window: the weather explains what the season was like; what ended up in the bottle depends on picking and on the winery's work.
