VINTAGE NOTES
The 2021 growing season began with another dry start to winter followed by a welcome wet spring which set the vines well for summer. Some minor frost in early budburst varietals but generally a favorable spring with good fruit set. The La Nina weather pattern lead to some significant rainfall including in early February, refreshing the canopies and luckily early enough not to create disease or bunch damage. Slow and relatively mild start to the season, with rainfall in March and early April. Warm March weather with cool nights was perfectly timed for our red varietals. A year with improved yields, elegant, less phenolic whites and varietal, fruit concentrated reds.
TASTING NOTES
Aromas of fresh citrus juice, almond meal and flint. White nectarine, nuts and Meyer lemon flavor drive the palate with long natural acidity.
