- Description
Edna Valley, located a mere five miles from the Pacific Ocean, has the longest growing season in California. The region boasts both oceanic and volcanic soils as well as cool temperatures caused by near constant maritime conditions of fog and wind. Ideal for Pinot Noir, the area is known for elegant wines that are quite Burgundian in style.
Fruit was carefully picked during the cool early morning hours and immediately transported to the winery where each cluster is de-stemmed to prevent harsh green notes from the finished wine. To extract color and flavor, the grapes were cold soaked for several days. Fermentation took place in small tanks with frequent punch downs to break up the cap. Once fermentation was complete, the wine was pressed and racked into French oak barrels to age for 12 months prior to bottling.
Maverick opens with bright aromas of raspberry, cranberry and hibiscus. Silky smooth and juicy on the palate, the wine offers a lingering finish of red fruit and subtle cherry cola hints. The 2016 Maverick is vibrant and expressive with elegant flavors and crisp acidity.
