Winemaker Notes:
"The saying of big things come in small packages is true when it comes to the 2015 vintage. While the yields were low, the quality was high. The growing period began with uncommonly warm temperatures in the late winter and early spring which resulted in an early bud break and bloom. Alpha Omega started and completed harvest the earliest in its history. Most white grapes ripened in late spring, which helped protect the fragrance and acidity of what became very balanced wines. The white wines possess incredible backbones and very well-developed aromatics."
