Story

“Scribe’s organically farmed estate vineyard is on the southwest-facing slope of Arrowhead Mountain in the southern Mayacamas Volcanic Range. Clones 809, Robert Young, Washington and Clone 6 are planted in volcanic tuff and Huichica loam soil.

After much needed, record-breaking winter rains lingered into early Spring, the vines came out of dormancy in mid-March. Wet soils and mild temperatures moved the vines through to veraison with ease, before several heat waves jumpstarted an early, quick harvest.”
