Growing Conditions
Vintage 2017 began with restorative rains that replenished soils, helped support vine growth and fortified our
vineyards through the Spring. Harvest began normally with yields looking promising, but a late-August heat wave
that continued into September caused harvest to pick up at a rapid pace. October was marked by wildfires in the
North Coast, and while the fires devastated many homes and properties, much of the area’s grapes were already
picked with the majority of the state’s vineyards not significantly affected.

Food Pairing
shrimp, seared Ahi Tuna, spicy Asian dishes dressed with avocado, cucumber and citrus. Creamy cheeses, vanilla pot du crème, and even milky chocolates.
