2022 looked like it was going to be year 4 or 5 of drought conditions with below average winter rains but some late spring rains came to the rescue and aided in canopy growth, which would become essential later in the summer. Late spring and early summer growing conditions were ideal although crop yields looked to be slightly lower than average. Harvest began for Trione on August 23rd with our first delivery of Russian River Valley Pinot. Harvest was off to a good start until California experienced an early September heat spike with consecutive record-breaking temperature days.
Grape growers and winemakers were faced with the decision to hurry up and pick or wait until the plant recovered and began accumulating sugars again (which is about a two-week cycle from plant shut down to restart). Those that waited took the gamble that the raisened fruit and burnt leaves could be salvaged. Thankfully with the well-developed canopies protecting much of the fruit from sunburn and raisening, and early picking decisions made by Trione, we were able to get our full tonnages of excellent quality fruit
