DSWE ‏@DomaineSelect @DavisBynumWines How has the weather affected the last few harvests? #SommChat

Davis Bynum Winery ‏@DavisBynumWines @MattMcGinnis @KeeperColl #SommChat Each wine expresses the terroir of the single vineyard site & individual clones which is quite rare!(GM)

KeeperCollection ‏@KeeperColl Q fr shy #SommChat peep: How does your #winemaking differ from what Davis did?

Davis Bynum Winery ‏@DavisBynumWines @KeeperColl #SommChat I try to emulate a lot of what Davis did - he's a source of inspiration! We do pick a touch riper than he used to (GM)

Andy Phillips ‏@AndyOnFarmWine @DavisBynumWines @KeeperColl you are in historic territory did you work with these types of clonal selections be4? #SommChat

Davis Bynum Winery ‏@DavisBynumWines @AndyOnFarmWine @KeeperColl #SommChat I've really only been making clonal specific wines in the last 5 years & love it! (GM)

Sandy Wasserman CS ‏@SandyWasserman Greg @DavisBynumWines Have you made wine outside CA? If so what and where? If not any desire to? Thanks #SommChat

WeddingOakWinery ‏@WeddingOakWine Q. @DavisBynumWines the @balancedpinot call for non-manipulation to let the true character of Pinot shine. Do you agree? #SommChat

Davis Bynum Winery ‏@DavisBynumWines @WeddingOakWine @KeeperColl #SommChat Davis Bynum wine is: sustainably farmed, native yeast, native MLF, unfiltered bottling.

WeddingOakWinery ‏@WeddingOakWine Sounds great @DavisBynumWines! @KeeperColl #SommChat

Christopher Miller ‏@noblewines @DavisBynumWines is the ripeness a function of the clones, climate or style of Pinot Noir sought? #SommChat

Davis Bynum Winery ‏@DavisBynumWines @noblewines @KeeperColl #SommChat It's a function of style (GM)

Andy Phillips ‏@AndyOnFarmWine @DavisBynumWines @KeeperColl have you tasted the wines all the way back to 1973 and if so how do they look? #SommChat

Davis Bynum Winery ‏@DavisBynumWines @AndyOnFarmWine @KeeperColl #SommChat Unfortunately no, but Davis says the 1975 is his favorite, so I'm looking forward to that! (GM)

Christopher Miller ‏@noblewines @DavisBynumWines which CA #pinot regions would you want to try your hand at? #SommChat @KeeperColl

KeeperCollection ‏@KeeperColl Q fr shy #SommChat peep: what R some of the biggest challenges that you face in #RRV ?

Davis Bynum Winery ‏@DavisBynumWines @KeeperColl #SommChat #RussianRiverValley There is always disease-pressure in the vineyards to deal with: red-blotch, botrytis, etc. (GM)

Andy Phillips ‏@AndyOnFarmWine @DavisBynumWines @KeeperColl i seem to like the lighter vintages here in oregon, how does ur wine show in the cooler vintage? #SommChat

Davis Bynum Winery ‏@DavisBynumWines @AndyOnFarmWine @KeeperColl #SommChat It is lighter in the cooler vintages - higher acidity, leaner body & more reddish fruit character (GM)

Christopher Miller ‏@noblewines @DavisBynumWines Do you appreciate those cooler vintage more or the riper ones that are easier to work & sell? #SommChat

@noblewines @KeeperColl #SommChat I prefer the acid-balance of cooler vintages. But the fruit of warmer vintages is great to work w/too (GM)
