| Growing Season Notes | An Idyllic, warm spring prompted early bud break and vine growth. But an April frost slowed development, caused some vine damage and led to decreased yields. Hot, dry weather in June and July accelerated ripening, but caused some dehydration and sunburn in the fruit. The challenging season ultimately resulted in wines of concentrated flavors, deep color and intense aromatics. |

| Growing Season Notes | A cool wet spring delayed the start of the 2019 growing season, pushing bud break into mid-April. Summer was idyllic marked by warm days and cool nights and an abundance of sunshine. The weather was without heat spikes that can be so detrimental to the vines. These perfect conditions allowed slow sugar accumulation and excellent acid retention within the clusters. A hard frost that blanketed the Northwest brought the season to a halt in mid-October. With the majority of the fruit already harvested, the remainder just waited on the vine for their turn on the picking schedule. |
