Vineyard Sites: 46% High Valley, 16% Alexander Valley, 12% Sonoma County, 10% Russian River Valley, 6% Mount Veeder, 6% Knights Valley, 2% Oakville, and 2% Oak Knoll The winter of 2019 was relatively mild, but record rains flooded many dormant vineyards on lower ground through March. Temperatures fluctuated April through June before evening out for a moderately warm growing season. Heat in early September gave everything a little push before a significant cooling trend slowed the pace of harvest. Yields were generally average.
