The 2022 Sonoma Coast vintage delivered exceptional quality despite significant challenges, beginning with beneficial winter rains following 2021's drought and elevated early-season temperatures. A predominantly cool summer was disrupted by an unprecedented Labor Day heat surge, accelerating harvest and further reducing already diminished yields from spring frost. Compact berries and clusters produced wines of remarkable concentration and depth. Our meticulous approach emphasized night harvesting, careful cluster selection for whole-cluster fermentation, and gentle processing via optical sorting and gravity-flow techniques. The vintage ultimately delivered wines of extraordinary quality despite limited volumes, demonstrating the resilience of Sonoma Coast vineyards through a season of climatic extremes.
