2007 MERLOT
2007 Vintage Conditions
The 2007 season was similar to the 2006 vintage with a lack of moisture a feature. With the continuation of drought conditions into 2007 irrigation was heavily used due to a lack of moisture in the soil profile at the beginning of the season. Yields were reduced to help the vines through the dry year with fruit quality exceptional.
Winemaking Notes
This wine was crafted by precisely identifying clonal variation in the vineyard and then blended to highlight these features. Each clone was fermented separately with oak maturation tailored to suit the structures.
