We're Having a Heat Wave...
During a quick walk through the vineyard this morning, I stopped by my dear green friend Jean-Luc Pommard. He looks very healthy and happy in the red Jory soil of Sokol Blosser's Dundee Hills vineyard. Although the heat last weekend (over 100 degrees for a few days!) was a little much, he seems to be thriving. Just look at those healthy little Pinot Noir grapes!
Right now, harvest is scheduled to start on September 21. Around that time, Jean-Luc's tiny green grapes will be lush, full, and very purple. We're looking forward to a great summer full of warm days, fun-filled events, and plenty of Sokol Blosser wine to be shared with friends and family. Cheers!
