Anton, I don't know exactly where you're located, which you should have mentioned, but here in the northeast (southeastern NY, for me) we saw extremely wet and cool weather for the first 2 months of "summer".  Freestoneness (ok, made up that word) arrived very late and up until about Coralstar which comes in about 18 days after Redhaven even normal frees were clings this year. 
 
Don't ever think you can get any kind of evaluation from one season of a few fruit, let alone a single mature harvest.  I want to know where you are because if your few fruit were clean without a huge input of fungicide I'd like to know all about it.  Nectarines rule!  Except maybe low acid ones.  I'm a sixties fruit acid-head.  Don't give me that fruit that tastes like it's loaded with high-fruc cornsyrup.
