An inky hued, bold wine with a decidedly dark fruit aroma centered around black cherry, dried fig, black olive, roast coffee and a hint of violet, clove, brambly sage and rosemary. The generous, full-bodied palate is texturally refined with lingering dark berries, anise and mocha.
The fruit was hand harvested in the cool morning hours and brought to the winery in half ton bins. The clusters were sorted using a double sorting system. The clusters were sorted using a double sorting system, first sorted by hand. The fruit then ran through a small de-stemmer before the individual berries were sorted to ensure that the ideal grapes were chosen. Warm fermentation temperatures were encouraged along with gentle cap maceration to achieve the desired color and structure for the wine before an extended maceration time on skins prior to final pressing. The wine was transferred directly to barrel for 19 months of maturation. Fifteen percent of the sorted berries were fermented in new French oak barrels add layers of complexity to the blend.
