Huglin Index (H)

The Huglin Index is an annual climate index commonly used in viticulture, calculated based on latitude and the average and maximum daily temperatures between April 1 and September 30. Optimal values for viticulture range between 1500 and 2400. Values near or below 1500 indicate particularly cool climates, while values near or above 2400 indicate particularly hot climates. The value shown in the table was specifically calculated for the area represented by the map and is the average for the period 2000–2019.

Rainy Days (Rd)

The number of rainy days between April 1 and November 30 in which the total rainfall exceeded 1 mm. The value shown is the average for the period 2000–2019.

Daily Millimetres (mm/d)

The average daily amount of rain (in millimetres) for each day between April 1 and November 30 in which the total rainfall exceeded 1 mm. The value shown is the average for the period 2000–2019.

* In this case, it was not possible to indicate the exact location of the vineyards because the producer does not provide such information, or the vineyards are distributed over a larger area than that shown on the map.

Soil composition

The detail level of the microarea allows to appreciate the soil composition, which contributes to determining the grape characteristics.

Contour lines

Contour lines allow to appreciate the elevation position of vineyards shown on the map, with greater precision compared to elevation scales.
