While below-average winter rainfall led to some light early spring irrigation, the 2020 growing season continued with favorable weather during bloom leading to a beautiful and even berry set. Moderate day temperatures and cool nights ensured extended hang times, which resulted in wines with great structure, round mouthfeel and balanced acidity.
