Winemaker Notes:The 2022 shows poise with vibrant acidity fresh blackberries, raspberry compote, cranberry skins, and dried rose petals. Striking minerality lays the base for cardamom, dried herbs, warm cedar, and iron-driven earth. Young tannins allow a midline drive and hint at future power. Delightful now, this holds gripping potential.

Vintage Notes:The 2022 season began with much-needed rainfall after a dry 2021. Fruit set was thus light, and though irrigation was required, a healthy bloom in May set the stage for a balanced growing season. Despite extreme heat over Labor Day, diligent work with our growers ensured vineyard resiliency necessary in this era of climate extremes. The grapes arrived in excellent condition, showcasing the ideal acidity and focused flavors to which we aspire.
