Winemaker Notes

The famed Chalone Vineyard has produced a sophisticated and vibrant wine with aromas of briar patch, cherry, and a touch of cardamom. On the palate, silky tannins and a refined structure frame flavors of blueberry and strawberry, with a subtle hint of nutmeg adding depth to a lingering finish.

Production

The 2022 growing season on the Central Coast began with below-average rainfall and moderate spring temperatures, setting the stage for an excellent budbreak and bloom. Warm summer days and ideal conditions across the region ensured steady and balanced fruit development. A boost of warmth in early September accelerated ripening, allowing us to begin harvest just after Labor Day and finish by late September—one of our earliest harvests to date. The result is a collection of wines celebrated for their richness, complexity, and vibrant acidity.
