Rodney Strong Red Blend Sonoma County
THE 2019 VINTAGE STARTED WITH COPIOUS AMOUNTS OF RAIN SATURATING THE SOIL IN LATE WINTER, WITH EVEN MORE RAIN LASTING THROUGH SPRING. A HOT JUNE FACILITATED VINE GROWTH FOLLOWED BY A CONSIDERABLE HEAT SPIKE IN AUGUST, PUSHING THE SUGARS UP AND ALLOWING THE BERRIES TO DEVELOP RIPE FLAVORS. WITH EVERYTHING IN BALANCE, HARVEST TOOK PLACE OCTOBER 1ST TO THE 18TH.
