To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
It wasn't until a number of years later that we sat down and tasted other people's wines together. When we met we were sipping Frank Nervo's wine, not Chateau Latour. So we made the wine in '72. It was a difficult year for California. For the North Coast in particular it was one of the more difficult years. I would say that there are very few if any 57 Cabernets where the wineries who were making high quality wine in those days would say, "Oh, we had a fine vintage. The '72 is one of our best w...ines. " Most of them would say, "This was one of the most difficult vintages of the decade- -'71 and '72 --and we had a rough time. " People added Petite Sirah to their Cabernet in '72, and it was hard to get it ripe. We had a beautiful growing season, but then just as the grapes were ripening we had some foggy weather and some light rains in September. It stopped everything in its tracks. Then the fogs hung in through September, and the grapes didn't move. Luckily, at Monte Bello we were above the fog, above the inversion.
