Production Notes
Every year, our Tres is one of my favorite blends to put together. Each varietal is picked, fermented, and vinified separately and blended together only just before bottling. This allows each wine to evolve individually so they can lend a unique component to the blend.
35.185% Grenache
33.552% Mourvedre
31.263% Syrah
Winemaker Notes
2023 was a beautiful vintage. We had tons of rain all winter long and a very delayed budbreak and bloom. The summer was warm but temperate with no crazy weather. This allowed for a long hang time in all our blocks and a very slow ripening. The natural acidities were preserved in the grapes which made for lovely and ageable wines. This is a stand out and age worthy vintage.
