Product Description

The cabernet sauvignon grapes were hand harvested in 1/2 ton bins then destemmed and crushed into small stainless steel fermenters. The must was chilled to 55 degrees for 24 hours for its "cold soak" to enhance the berry aromas; the juice was bled from the tank to concentrate flavors. The tanks were allowed to warm naturally and slowly inoculated with Bordeaux yeast isolate. We pumped over the wine twice a day to enhance color stability and aromas. It was pressed off at dryness then aged in French, Hungarian and American oak barrels for 22 months.
