Five consecutive years of above-average rainfall combined with the perfect weather of the last week of March and first ten days of April got this spring off to a roaring start. The second Friday in April, I was walking through the Chardonnay vineyard experiencing what could only be described as weather perfection. The air quality was crystal perfect. The sun was radiant but not too hot; there were no thoughts of hats. The shoots on the Chardonnay vines were 5 to 7 inches long, which was about 4 inches longer than<br \/>they were the week before!<\/p><p>My mind was filled with positive images and thoughts. March had been the best sales month in California in the entire 23-year history of the winery! [Special mention to our Northern California broker: The Monterey Bay Wine Co!] The !99 Chardonnay barrel lots were tasting exceptionally well, especially the lot from our own vineyard. Last year (1999) was our first significant crop since replanting in 1995 due to Pierces disease; and 2000 should be our first full harvest of Chardonnay.<\/p><p>So there I was strolling through the vineyard with happy memories, happy thoughts, and happy projections for the future (hey, maybe even the Giants this year\u2026) when I got to the end of the vineyard row and saw the bug trap. In the trap were nine blue-green sharpshooters, the little leaf-hopping bug that passes Pierces disease from vine to vine! This is the disease that caused us to replant 85% of our vineyards since 1995.

I was sitting on a five-gallon bucket and Reilly was literally sitting in a pile of dirt. Not only was he sitting in it he was also scooping it up and pouring it all over himself and occasionally over me. It had been a great season!<\/p><p>At some point a friend walked by and commented on Reilly\u2019s affinity for dirt and I said, \u201cHe\u2019s a true son of a farmer!\u201d To which Reilly replied, \u201cDad, I don\u2019t want to be a farmer.\u201d \u201cWhy not?\u201d I asked. To which he quickly and emphatically said, \u201cBecause farmers are poor!\u201d<\/p><p>How on earth did he get this impression; has he been reading my newsletter? Three months later, I\u2019m standing in the dirt at the base of our 22-acre two-year-old cabernet vineyard wondering if the entire vineyard is going to die. It seems that most of the vines have some type of mysterious ugly, swollen, growth at the base of the vine just above the bench-graft. Most of the vines look badly dehydrated and the leaves are displaying colors that are not generally associated with good health.<\/p><p>We call in experts, we send samples to agricultural labs. No one seems to know what we have. We are special. We are \u201cFarmers.\u201d Be afraid my son, be very afraid!<\/p><p>Harvest has come and gone now and we did get our first small crop off the new cab vineyard, not as much fruit as we had hoped, but fruit nonetheless. Most of the vines have miraculously survived and so far the 2000 juice tastes damn good.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-50 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-305ea56 animated-slow elementor-invisible\" data-id=\"305ea56\" data-element_type=\"column\" data-settings=\"{&quot;animation&quot;:&quot;fadeInRight&quot;}\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-18505cc elementor-widget elementor-widget-image\" data-id=\"18505cc\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"900\" height=\"1200\" src=\"http:\/\/202.131.107.107\/sj\/keenanwinery\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/dsc-0215-sm-matt-gardner-stretch.jpg\" class=\"attachment-full size-full wp-image-18385\" alt=\"dsc-0215-sm-matt-gardner-stretch\" srcset=\"http:\/\/202.131.107.107\/sj\/keenanwinery\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/dsc-0215-sm-matt-gardner-stretch.jpg 900w, http:\/\/202.131.107.107\/sj\/keenanwinery\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/dsc-0215-sm-matt-gardner-stretch-600x800.jpg 600w, http:\/\/202.131.107.107\/sj\/keenanwinery\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/dsc-0215-sm-matt-gardner-stretch-225x300.jpg 225w, http:\/\/202.131.107.107\/sj\/keenanwinery\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/dsc-0215-sm-matt-gardner-stretch-768x1024.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 900px) 100vw, 900px\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-20168aa test-word animated-slow elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default elementor-invisible\" data-id=\"20168aa\" data-element_type=\"section\" data-settings=\"{&quot;animation&quot;:&quot;fadeInLeft&quot;}\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-100 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-a9fafbc\" data-id=\"a9fafbc\" data-element_type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-93ee3e3 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"93ee3e3\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>Can\u2019t wait till next year!<\/p><p><strong>\u2013Michael Keenan<\/strong><\/p><p>(This is the Winery Lifestyle Reilly will come to love \u2013 just watch!)<\/p><h3>A Glimpse at the Future a Glance at the Past \u2013 Winery Lifestyle<\/h3><p><strong>Fall-Winter 2001-2002<\/strong><\/p><p>BEGINNING IN 1995 AND CONTINUING until 1998, we ripped out and replanted eighty percent of our vineyards.

The colors are incredible; the fruit also shows great complexity, ripeness, and classic structure that hints at great age-ability. This glimpse of the future looks very bright!<\/p><p>Presently we are releasing two wines, the 1998 Napa Valley Merlot, and the 1998 Reserve Napa Valley Merlot, which were harvested almost exactly three years ago at the end of a very challenging growing season, the polar opposite of this season.<\/p><p>Instead of early bud break and the tremendous spring heat that we had this year, 1998 gave us cool temperatures and rain through the Fourth of July. The summer never did develop the heat that we are accustomed to but by patiently waiting and praying, we finally got our vineyards to ripen by late November.\u00a0<\/p><p>Some credit also must be given to our unique micro-climate on Spring Mountain where we get more degree days of sunlight than other regions of Napa Valley. In 1998 this advantage of our location proved to be even more crucial than ever as other areas never did fully ripen thus explaining the wide range of quality from the 1998 vintage.<\/p><p>I am very proud of our \u201998s; the 1998 Napa Valley Merlot received the third highest score of all Merlots from Wine &amp; Spirits Magazine in their November issue. Our \u201998 Cab received the award for best Cabernet Sauvignon, best red wine, best wine in the limited production category, and best label at the Los Angeles County Fair this year!<\/p><p>The capper for me, though, is the 1998 Reserve Napa Valley Merlot. This wine embodies everything the all-knowing critics said that the 1998 vintage could not do.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-5c6975f test-word animated-slow elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default elementor-invisible\" data-id=\"5c6975f\" data-element_type=\"section\" data-settings=\"{&quot;animation&quot;:&quot;fadeInLeft&quot;}\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-100 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-b510068\" data-id=\"b510068\" data-element_type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-e0be0c1 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"e0be0c1\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>They said we could not make wines of great ripeness, great intensity, great complexity, combined with firm yet round and approachable tannins that will drink<br \/>well into the future but are also very approachable and delicious today\u2013but we did!<\/p><p>I hope this brief glimpse of the future and glance at the past provides a better understanding of what we have to offer today.
