Vintage Notes
Vintage 2022 was yet another memorable year.
It began with a frost event shortly after budbreak, making 2022 a vintage like no other. Growers were forced to adapt quickly to conditions not seen in many years. A cool, wet spring slowed vine growth and led to a secondary budbreak in early May.
This shift in phenology resulted in a beautiful bloom, and concerns about low yields were quickly replaced by a bountiful crop. The season began to track similarly to 2011, prompting growers to act decisively to ensure optimal ripeness and quality.
From early summer on, weather conditions were nearly ideal—daily averages in the mid-80s with minimal rainfall after the solstice. October brought record-breaking warmth and dry skies, allowing harvest to proceed at peak ripeness.
Fruit quality in 2022 was exceptional—among the best we’ve seen.
