A cold snap with negative temperatures in January of 2017 hurt many vines in the Snake River AVA, leading to an 80-85% loss. However, the large amounts of snow on the ground during the cold snap, served to protect the vine roots and allow for a quick recovery through steadily warm spring and summer months. Despite negative temperatures, some shining stars among the vines continued to produce fruit including Syrah, Pinot Gris, Cabernet Sauvignon, and Riesling. The short and sweet 2017 harvest bore fruit with pronounced intensity and acidity that will make a fine 2017 vintage from Idaho.
