The 2010 Vintage
The 2010 growing season started very slowly, with cool, damp weather that delayed bloom until early July. Yields were lower than in typical years, due in part to early season weather conditions and also due to very aggressive crop thinning to compensate for the late start. Weather continued cool through the summer and September was cool and showery. But then the skies cleared and a perfect Indian Summer carried the fruit to ideal maturity late in October. Months of anxiety and meticulous viticulture were rewarded with age-worthy wines of moderate alcohol and excellent fruit intensity
