Wine Details
Price:
$65.00 per bottle
Description:
Set high on the steep, terraced slopes of the Mayacamas Mountains between Sonoma and Napa Valleys, our Nuns Canyon Vineyard has a strong western exposure and deep, rich soils, which render unusually concentrated grapes marked by deep color, abundant tannins, and flavors ranging from cassis to mint and licorice, from black cherry to chocolate. The grapes were harvested by hand and crushed into stainless steel tanks, where fermentation took place over eight to fifteen days, followed by malolactic fermentation over the next six weeks. Racked into new and one-year-old French and American oak barrels, the wine was then aged for twenty-four months before being bottled without fining or filtration and held for another eight months before release.
