The Atwater Times - October 2020

Accepting SAFE Indoor Tasting Reservations through 12/31

In the Vineyard

We are moving steadily through harvest, bringing more fruit in each week as scheduling allows. Everything “is there,” we are just waiting to see if we can get a little more out the fruit that is still on the vine. The fruit chemistry is good: now we are only pushing for extra flavor development. This is a rare year in that we can be patient without fearing the fruit will degrade. The dry weather has caused low yields but also extremely clean fruit. We are excited to see how the wines from this vintage turn out!

Wine Cellar Updates

We have reached the endpoint of the harvest season, and to date the quality and chemistry of the grapes is very promising. The cool down in weather, especially at night, over the last few weeks has slowed down ripening and the precipitation of acidity thus allowing the grapes more hang time. The other result from the terrific harvest conditions and relatively low disease pressure, is it allows the winemaking team the luxury of scheduling each pick in a relatively timely manner without the additional stress of rushing the grapes onto the crush pad. 2020 is shaping up to be a terrific vintage!

New Releases

 

End of Vintage - Bubble Pinot Noir Rosé
 

Don't miss your chance to enjoy the last of the season's Bubble Pinot Noir Rosé. This perfectly balanced rosé Pinot Noir bubbles forth with expressive notes of strawberry and a delicious dry, cranberry finish making an ideal aperitif.
