Vintage notes
The Russian River Valley experienced a challenging 2022 growing season. An unseasonably sunny and warm February, prompted early budbreak, leaving vines susceptible to early season frost. Overall Spring and early Summer were trouble free, bringing the heat in late August, accelerating ripening, and bringing on a fast-paced harvest. Yields were lower than average in the Valley, but the fruit has great concentration and flavor in the wines as a result. Our Pinot Noir harvest began on August 26th.
