Harvest Date: Oct 7–16
Brix: 25.0° avg
Soil: Napa Valley soils are primarily comprised of broken down or decomposed rock that has been carried downhill from the eastern Vaca range and the western Mayacamas range into the base of the valley, where they ultimately intermingle with the silt, clay and gravel deposits of the Napa River flood plain.

Winemaking
Varietal Composition: 88% Cabernet Sauvignon and 12% Petit Verdot
Fermentation: Native-yeast and full natural malolactic fermentations
Aging: The 2019 Annum rested on its lees for 24 months in new French oak barrels (Taransaud) with bi-monthly bâtonnage to coat the tannins and smoothly integrate the wood. The wine was then lightly fined with egg whites and bottled without filtration in February 2022.
