As with the previous year we were lucky enough to have the Petit Verdot and Cabernet Sauvignon grapes ripen at the same time and facilitate “co-fermentation.” This is the practice of making a field blend or fermenting the varieties together to enhance the marriage of the wine and the stability of its colors and tannins. We harvested . . .</P> <BR clear=left><BR><P><A HREF=http://www.nexternal.com/jlohr/Product435 TITLE="2004 Hilltop Vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon"><IMG SRC="https://store.nexternal.com/jlohr/images/Hilltop-Cab-label-sm.jpg" ALIGN=left ALT="2004 Hilltop Vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon" NAME="2004 Hilltop Vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon" BORDER=0></A> <A HREF=http://www.nexternal.com/jlohr/Product435 TITLE="2004 Hilltop Vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon">2004 Hilltop Vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon</A> -- <B>$40.00</B> -- VINTAGE September 11th was the first day of harvest for Hilltop Vineyard blocks 55 and 56. Back-to-back low rainfall years in 2003 and 2004 produced very low yields and very tiny Cabernet berries. Particularly in the Hilltop block we are trying to provide dappled and not direct, sunlight on the fruit to protect the anthocyanin pigment from damagingly high temperatures.

Early March bud push in the Chardonnay was met with abundant spring rains, followed by a long, cool growing season. These ideal conditions allowed intense flavor development and acid preservation in a slow and even ripening of the Arroyo Vista Chardonnay fruit.

The vines seemed to awaken with enthusiasm from the generous winter rainfall, not only with a healthy crop, but with bold and generous dark cherry and black currant fruit varietal expression which is the hallmark of this great Cabernet winegrowing region.

Coming on the heels of the abundant 2005 crop, the 2006 Chardonnay crop was lighter than average, and produced intensely-flavored fruit.

With the exception of a 10-day relentless heat wave in July, the final three months of the 2006 growing season were very cool – pushing ripening back two to three weeks.

Lohr’s Fog’s Reach Vineyard Pinot Noir. Grown on cobbly, sandy loam soils of the cool, windy Arroyo Seco appellation of Monterey, Pinot seems to thrive, producing tiny, deeply colored and flavorful clusters. Comprised of Dijon clones 115, 667, 777 and Pommard 4 grown on two different rootstocks, the Pinot Noir grapes were hand harvested, destemmed . . .</P> <BR clear=left><BR><P><A HREF=http://www.nexternal.com/jlohr/Product454 TITLE="2006 J.

This unusual rain affected bud fertility, ultimately reducing cluster numbers (and consequently yields) in White Riesling.

I also made a conscious decision based on a tasting early in 2006 to let our Dijon and Musqué Chardonnay clones ripen more fully and create grapes of greater volume and texture.

Additionally, what looked to be an average year in terms of cluster numbers and thus yield turned out to be a very light vintage due to fewer and lighter berries per bunch of both greater flavor and acid retention.
