Tench Vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon

Tench Vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon Wine Details
Price: $75.00 per bottle

Description: Mild spring conditions were ideal for the vines in 2002 and the vineyard was well balanced. The crop looked a bit lighter than last year and proved to be down at harvest. Warm temperatures prevailed into the summer and the heat and low humidity at the end of September required strict irrigation practices due to the rocky soils. The old vines carried fruit that matured slowly and we needed to hang the fruit until mid-October before we developed the nice blueberry flavors that distinguish this vineyard.
