A warm 2022 Napa Valley summer allowed the grapes to ripen earlier than normal with lower yields and smaller berries. The resulting wines have concentrated flavors with tension and length. The vines responded to a September heat wave by shutting down for several weeks with stable sugar levels. This allowed for exceptional hang time and mature development of flavors and tannins. Our two blocks of Cabernet Sauvignon matured on divergent paths in 2022. The Clone 15 block ripened rapidly in the heat wave with some dehydration, while the Weimer Clone and Petit Verdot were not impacted and reached optimal maturity on a normal pace. The Weimer clone offered freshness and intensity. Clone 15 was opulent and played only a minor role in the final blend. 1% of Petit Verdot added depth and balance in this 2022 vintage wine.
