Narrowly avoiding a late spring frost, the growing season of 2015 got off to a tenuous and slow start that was forced to confront a very wet June. Concern over rot and slow growth was tempered as heat accumulation began to slowly mount. Ultimately, 2015 was the warmest vintage when measured by heat accumulation since 2012. It wasn’t until August that the heat accumulation became as apparent in the vineyard. Similar to 2014, the late summer period of warm dry weather helped position harvest to begin slightly earlier than in 2014. Harvest decisions were hasted by mid-September rains that ushered in a sense of urgency for picking, and brought cooler weather as well. Fortunately, warm pockets enabled us to prolong picking decisions in some mesoclimates, and seek greater ripeness in our red wines and development in our dessert wines. The weather pattern specifically fostered development of botrytis at the Kashong Glen Vineyard site, and served as a source for the production of the winery’s first berry select Riesling.
