Vineyard Notes
Fruit from vineyards in Napa and Sonoma add good flavor, minerality and complexity. Lake County fruit adds citrus notes while grapes from Mendocino lends color and fruit forward flavors. Fruit from the warmer Lodi appellation adds concentration to the wine while vineyards in Monterey offer tropical aromatics and well-balanced acidity. Within Santa Barbara, fruit from the cooler, marine-influenced vineyards add crisp, clean minerality and well-balanced acidity while fruit from vineyards located more inland experience morning coastal fog and afternoon winds, adding to the wine’s tropical notes. Blending fruit from these varied growing regions across California creates a balanced, food-friendly wine
Harvest Notes
Across California, the growing season was long with mild temperatures throughout. Winter rains followed by a cool spring and a warm summer led to ideal harvest conditions, allowing us to pick the fruit at its optimal ripeness during the middle of September. The extended growing season allowed for a longer than usual hang time, resulting in concentrated fruit clusters with great flavor and acidity.
Winemaking Notes
To preserve the wine’s fruit and natural acidity, the wine underwent a long, cool fermentation in stainless steel tanks. Finally, the lots are blended, taking care to balance the characteristics of each vineyard in the wine.
