Tasting note
Captivating Cabernet Sauvignon: cassis, plums, cedar, red capsicum, violets. Elegance on the palate with fine, chalky tannins. Powerful, aromatic, charming. Enjoyable now; cellaring 5-8 years enhances allure, quality, pleasure.
Viticulture
Warm, dry spring and summer, continuing into harvest, led to negligible disease pressure, clean fruit, reduced yields, and rapid ripening. Reds show intense color, flavor, and dense, velvety tannins, offering balanced, concentrated profiles.
Vinification
"Gentle crushing of small grape batches, transferred to 5-ton open fermenters. Separate until blending. Foot treading at 2/3 fermentation. Basket pressed, old American oak barrique fermentation. Aged on lees, no racking till blending. No fining or filtration before bottling..
Food Match
Steak, game birds, goulash, lamb.
