ERA5-Land and ERA5 reanalysis, Copernicus Climate Change Service (C3S), CC BY 4.0. Weather, not a rating of the wine.
Zone by zone
The 2026 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
The region is computed at a single representative point, not as an average of its appellations — so its indicators can differ from those of the appellations below.

Wines of 2026 in the catalogue
No bottle in the catalogue carries 2026 on record. The vintage is declared by the producer and we publish it where they do — most wines here are undated, so this is a statement about our catalogue rather than about the year.

Each region is computed at a single representative point, not as an average of its appellations. The card shows the cell's coordinates and elevation, which can differ from the vineyards'.
Season window
April 1 to October 31. A year is compared with the mean of the previous ten full seasons, provided there are at least eight of them.
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.
