Growing Conditions

Perhaps the most remarkable feature of the 2012 growing season is that it was entirely unremarkable. None of the rain or frost, or fires, or cool temperatures or tiny yields that 2008, 2009, 2010, and 2011 produced, just ideal conditions and a long, even ripening period. The 2012 vintage Robert Craig Winery Cabernets are able to show their vineyard source in every nuance. A classic year marked by tremendous structure.
