Honest Harvest
As hot as our summer was, just as the Farmers’ Almanac predicted, the very cool autumn has arrived. What does this mean for wine lovers? It’s an invitation to seek out big, bold wines that will pair perfectly with seasonal harvest foods. Your Fall Shipment is made up of some of our favorite picks for fall, ideal pairings for warm oven-roasted foods and chilly sweater weather.
At Road 13, we use these time-tested techniques to create the big, full-bodied wine, and this fall shipment is a testament to just that.
Vine to Wine
Every fall signifies the wildly anticipated harvest season. During harvest our unbelievable vineyard team proves their relentless commitment to delivering quality fruit from every last block. Harvest humbly reminds us that mother nature truly is in control, and we have no choice but to work on her schedule.
This year’s summer was very warm, and fall is proving to be quite cool, which means our harvest team will be working around the clock to bring our fruit in swiftly. This season is resulting in lower sugar concentration levels in the fruit, contrasted by complexly nuanced and developed flavours. We know we’re going to get some amazingly bold wines from 2022.
