WEATHER CONDITIONS FOR VINTAGE
Sonoma County had a mixed and somewhat challenging growing season in 2022. Winter was relatively dry, with limited rainfall only partially replenishing reservoirs and soil moisture. Overall spring and early summer were warm and relatively trouble free. The heat turned up in late August and early September accelerating ripening, bringing a rapid and fast-paced start to harvest. Our inaugural La Crema Cabernet Sauvignon vintage resulted in riper red and blue fruit characteristics.
VINIFICATION COMMENTS
Estate vineyards in the Alexander Valley offer some of the redder, darker, and more dense tannins in the blend. With the composition of other mountain and valley vineyards, blended with Merlot helping to add riper and softer fruit expressions to provide wine length and balance. Blocks, varieties, and clones are kept separate until final blending to allow the greatest range of expression and blending options.
WINEMAKER COMMENTS
NOSE: Dried cherries, plums, and black currant .
PALATE: Boysenberry, dark cherry, and hints of coffee are followed by approachable tannins, round, soft, and balanced by a juicy acidity.
