2022 Harvest stats:

Vineyard: Napa, Valley

Varietal: Cabernet Sauvignon

Pick Date: October 27, 2022

Pick Time: 7:34 a.m.

Brix: 26.4

Ph: 3.55

TA: .540


Important Facts. Great timing after holding on and picking a week later (I still wanted to let it hang, but things worked out wonderful) to let the sugars and flavors mature (after a very cool October and late rains). Quality : excellent Patience in the vineyard always pays off. No panic picking here. Just barreled after extended maceration. Wonderful color, fruit character, and tannin. This one will be interesting (how it develops) when it comes to making the wine. 2010 is going to be an outstanding vintage.

Ph: 3.55

Important Facts. Great timing after holding on and picking two weeks later than almost everyone to let the sugars and flavors mature. Quality : exceptional. Just pressed and Presently in the barrel. The nose on this wine is the best of the vintage so far..just outstanding.

More aggressive fruit tannins than last year which is great and will be interesting to see how it all develops in the barrel.
