Winemaker Notes
From the moment it graces your glass, this refreshingly balanced Red Blend treats your senses to familiar aromas of boysenberry, blackberry crumble and a hint of cinnamon. The generous addition of Merlot brings smooth tannins and Cabernet Sauvignon enhances its juicy ripe berry flavors, inviting you to savor each mouthwatering sip.
Production
The 2022 Alexander Valley growing season was similar to 2021, with limited rainfall and warm daytime temperatures throughout summer. Cool nights allowed our Chardonnay and Sauvignon Blanc to retain ideal acidity, while developing vibrant tropical and citrus flavors. Our reds produced average-sized crops, leading to happy, balanced vines. Near Labor Day, we had four very hot days, which led to three busy weeks of picking. With rain in the forecast as we approached October, we made a final push to complete harvest. The overall quality of the 2022 harvest was very high, with our whites showing beautiful brightness and energetic citrus and stone fruit flavors, and our reds offering inky colors, concentrated dark berry flavors, and round, silky tannins.
