Observation on a new vintage although 2016 saw seasonal rainfall closer to average california officially marked its fifth year of continued drought. As in year’s past we used deficit irrigation concepts and soil and plant moisture data to carefully manage our water resources.

Throughout september the weather was picture perfect. Like clockwork each weekend brought a small warm push followed by cooling during the week. The weather variations gave us a steady stream of perfectly ripe fruit over the course of the total six-week harvest.
