2016 Three Rivers Svelte Bordeaux, Columbia Valley
Winemaker Notes
2016 started out with above average temperatures reaching record
heat in April. This jumpstarted our growing season and resulted
in an earlier bloom than in 2015. Cooler June and July months
slowed things down, allowing us to catch up in the vineyard.
Temperatures heated back up in August and the grapes were
harvested from September 15 – October 10, 2016
