Description
The mild spring and summer provided ideal temperatures ranging from the high 80s to the low 90s. Our coastal location moderated the late summer heat wave, allowing the vines to recover providing precise acidity, low sugar levels, and intriguing flavors. As a result, the 2020 vintage was considered the best over the last decade.
We fermented the grapes using a combination of oak and concrete fermenters. We barreled the wine down in 33% new French oak and aged it for 20 months.
