The\u003cbr\u003eseason’s weather set the stage for wines with bright acidity, expressive fruit,\u003cbr\u003eand excellent aging potential.\u003cbr\u003eSpring rains produced vines with strong canopies and healthy fruit set. Acid\u003cbr\u003edevelopment and aromatics both benefitted from cool nights through the\u003cbr\u003esummer, as temperatures rose steadily post spring, not wavering until\u003cbr\u003eSeptember. There was a moment of prolonged heat in mid-summer, but\u003cbr\u003eeventually the sun set into more reasonable temperatures and the vines\u003cbr\u003eadjusted accordingly.\u003cbr\u003eHarvest began later than “usual” and temperatures were moderate throughout\u003cbr\u003ethe harvest window allowing some varietals, particularly reds, to see an\u003cbr\u003eextended hang-time on the vine, which allowed for more concentrated flavors\u003cbr\u003eand deeper color.\u003cbr\u003eRob Griffin\u003cbr\u003eFounding Winemaker Megan Hughes\u003cbr\u003e2nd Generation\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Barnard Griffin","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43174453870816,"sku":"100763","price":23.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0649\/9713\/0464\/files\/SauvBlanc-NV1.png?v=1753215687","url":"https:\/\/www.mywineconnection.com\/products\/barnard-griffin-sauvignon-blanc-2020-750ml","provider":"My Wine Connection","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
