NEW 2022 Rockpile "Buck Pasture" Red Wine

The 2022 growing season proved itself challenging with the lack of rainfall and above average growing temperatures. We made each farming through the lens of maintaining vine stamina for the big push at the tail end of the growing season. We also did less leaf plucking to encourage a greater degree of dappled sunlight impacting the grapes via less leaf plucking, preserving freshness and detail in the grapes. Our experience growing on the ridgelines of Rockpile continues to prove to us that mother nature delivers weather events there that magnify the valley floor experiences, so having a keen eye for detail and a devotion for preparation helps us to buffer any extremes.
