Vintage Notes
2022 was an extraordinary year in the vineyards. Every few weeks, unusual weather events swept through the warm spring. Summer began with a heat wave reaching 110°F in Lake County, followed by heavy mid-summer rains. The two inches of rain delayed our harvest until the soil dried and brix levels rose.
A harmonious blend of Merlot and Cabernet Franc for spicy notes, with Petit Verdot and Cabernet Sauvignon adding elegance, power, and structure. Enjoy rich flavors of coffee, cacao, sage, dark chocolate, and ripe fruit for a bold, impressive palate.
Garnet in color. Aromas of fresh plum and cherry pie. On the palate, flavors of vanilla, dried cherry and sweet tobacco. Mid-weight and balanced acidity. A versatile, food-friendly wine.
