Production Notes
The Central Coast AVA is one of the largest and most important grape
growing regions in California. Its boundaries stretch from Santa Barbara
County in the south all the way up to San Francisco in the north. The
geographical diversity of the region yields a plethora of distinct microclimates
and aords winegrowers the unique ability to produce a staggering number of
grape varietals.
Vineyard Notes
2017 was marked by its heavy rainfall, heat spikes in summer, and high quality
fruit. Winter rains replenished the soils leading up to budbreak. Temperatures
throughout spring and early summer were moderate, resulting in slow even
ripening. A heat spike at the end of August – early September propelled us
into harvest. We began picking the fruit on August 31st through November
3rd, 2017 at optimal maturity.
