Winemakers Notes

Scents of ripened wild cherries, rose petals, violets, mocha, minerals and exotic spice come through in the nose of this wine. It shows rich structure and good balance with overall concentration and depth of fruit. Sweet red fruits, notes of earth and a long, lingering finish complete this wine. It needs time to mature in the bottle.
—Winemaker Bob Cabral

Harvest Notes

A hot spell in March followed by a warm spring influenced an unusually early bloom and budbreak. This precocious start, followed by a growing season of moderate temperatures, resulted in a very early harvest. Although we harvested the grapes two to three weeks earlier than normal, the long season provided ample time for the fruit to reach full maturity and develop extraordinary color and intense flavors. A cooling trend in mid-September offered the Chardonnay additional hang time prior to harvest.
