Vintage 2024:
The Napa Valley 2024 vintage was a textbook year for winemaking. Although several hot days occurred during the growing season, the abundant winter rains prepared the vines for success.
The wines are finishing up Malo-lactic fermentation and are resting in the cellar. Next on the horizon is racking, a process essential for clarity and structure.
We are based on the California Harvest cycle so we get most of our fruit in early to mid October.
We sell 3 different quality levels of fruit. We have branded them California, Sonoma and Napa (think good, better, best).
At each quality level, we sell quarter, half and full barrels. At the Napa level we have American and French Oak options. The entire process takes about
a year to complete (think October - for the Crush & Press, to the following August/September for Bottling).
