Fascinating deep dive into how terroir shapes these pinot noirs. The elevation and climate data really brings home why Garnet Valley produces such distinct wines compared to the lakefront. I tried a few BC pinots last year and the difference betweem regions was striking, but this breakdown of growing degree days and frost periods makes it click.
Thanks for the note. Yes,, quite distinct from Lakefront, part of which consists of a delta containing different soils and soil structure. 8th Generation pinot noirs for instances are quite different.
