Winemaker's Notes
|
|
Estate-Grown Red Wine
Made of fully ripe grapes from thirty-seven year old vines and grown on the steepest slopes of the winery's vineyards. The age of the vines and the excellent exposure give this wine a personality that reflects the "terroir," the specific character imparted by the soil and place it is grown. A traditional fermentation method is used to bring out the spice and berry flavors such as mulberries, blueberries and black currants concentrated in the fruit. A year of aging in oak barrels enhances the depth, finesse, and complexity. A truly unique wine!

Sweetness: dry
Alcohol: 13.5%
