Vintage notes from the producer: "2017 started out similar to the previous year with an abundance of rainfall followed by a balmy spring allowing for a gradual start to the season. As the year progressed, vines were fortunate to not have any frost damage and the temperatures rose leading to a great harvest. Cool mornings and warm days allowed for adequate cluster development followed by late rains, leaving the grapes to optimal brix levels. Extended hang time allowed for mature, ripe fruit and well-developed tannins." 86% Cabernet Sauvignon, 14% Merlot
