Similar to 2005, the 2009 vintage was characterized by an immense drought from April to September. Thankfully, a rainy autumn/winter the vintage prior allowed for solid ground water retention levels, which helped keep vines nourished during the season. Cool evenings kept acidity high, with final yields creating the backbone for polished, good quality wines with medium-term aging potential.
