DESCRIPTION
DESCRIPTION
Crafted from our estate grown Chambourcin and Cabernet Franc grapes, hand harvested in October 2019. Planted at 2,300 vines per acre, and cluster thinned back to 3 tons per acre to concentrate the true flavor potential of this unique varietal. The only processing of the cold fruit was a soft whole cluster press to retain the aromatic fruit character.
A long, slow, cool fermentation preceded Sur-Lie aging for 6 months in small stainless steel tanks which resulted in a deep pink color and bold fruit flavors of fresh strawberry and ripe watermelon. Rounded and rich on the palette with great minerality on a long lingering finish.
