Dry white wine with bright acidity and flavors of sugared lemon peel, rose petal and seaspray

Growing Conditions

The 2022 growing season was excellent. Summer was hot, dry and near perfect. The lack of rainfall was unprecedented but mitigated by drip irrigation and a few much-needed rain events in September and October. Harvest of red wine grapes was 2 weeks ahead of normal years with brix at the highest levels seen in the history of the region. Yields were down, quality was extremely high.
