Vibrant ripe cherry, cranberry, and raspberry nose unfold into dried blueberries, plum, and lively summer herbs. Full, plush, and balanced textures with fine grained tannins and a gentle, bright acidity. This wine is complex and layered, with ripe, fresh flavors and elegance.
The must underwent a pre-fermentation “cold soak” to increase extraction of color and flavor. Fermentation took place in a mix of small and large fermenters with each cap managed individually to optimize maceration. The individual lots were fermented with specially chosen yeast, and after pressing, the wine underwent malolactic fermentation naturally in French oak barrels.
