Many consider the 2022 vintage in Oakville to be a tale of two harvests. The harvest began early in August with white varieties and quickly moved to red varieties. Growers faced a challenging climate with a heatwave in September followed by unexpected rain, which momentarily halted harvest. Despite these challenges, the mild weather post-rain allowed grapes to achieve perfect ripeness.
Our Oakville Cabernet Sauvignon from 2022 boasts excellent structure, deep red colors, luxurious tannins, and exquisite fruit-forward aromatics. The unique weather patterns of this year promise a dynamic range of flavors, from vibrant and crisp to dense and powerful.
