Wine Details
Price:
$30.00 per bottle
Description:
Ahhh, Raspberry & Mulberry spiked with lavender &
sandalwood, finishing with lush spice and hints of rose petals. Ripe tannins
fill out the mid-palate as well as indicate aging potential & a future in the cellar.
This blend has the largest amount of Syrah we've had between the 03' 04' & 05'
vintages, which contributes to the rich color and voluptuous body of the wine.
This is also the smallest production year we've had from this exceptional vineyard.
The Grenache & Syrah were crushed leaving 30% of the clusters whole, into small
open top fermentors & punched down 3 times a day by hand for 12 days. We basket
pressed the young wine into 7 barrels, 1 of which was new, accounting for 14% of
the cooperage blend. After 11 months, we bottled sans fining or filtration.
