Our estate vineyard was planted in 1999 with Clone 8 Cabernet Sauvignon on freedom rootstock. Our soil is sandy loam for thirty feet down which gives the vineyard great drainage so we can adjust the amount of water to the vines. We thin the canes in the spring to only grow two canes per spur with an average of 4 tons per acre at harvest.
Once fall is complete, the grapes picked and the leaves have fallen winter sets in. From roughly November until the following Spring the vines enter their dormancy. The vines are starting to come to life this Spring after a very long cold and WET winter. We have pruned the vines and will thin the shoots soon to limit the vineyard production so we get the high quality fruit that we need to produce our delicious Cabernet. We also till the winter growth into the soil during early Spring to naturally supliment the soil with organic material and nutrients. These practices ensure that we can continue to produce the delicious Cabernet that YOU count on.
