The Year: Napa Valley began with the 21st century providing a virtually picture
perfect growing season. The almost uneventful spring and summer
weather pattern, every grower's dream, produced exceptional quality fruit with
substantial yields. The light rain in September gave the grapes the extra kick to
keep hanging and ripening. This additional hang time allowed the full natural
flavors of the fruit to develop on the vine. The result was a crop of fruit typical
of what has helped make Napa Valley famous; one with excellent color, fully
developed flavors and great acidity.
