The wine has a dark ruby color. The classic, perfumed herbal aromas from the Cabernet Franc that initially dominate the nose are followed by notes of ripe plums and assorted berries. On the palate the wine is medium-bodied with flavors of baked cranberries, plums and a hint of herbs. The wine’s components have excellent balance resulting in a wine that is imminently drinkable.
This elegant yet flavorful wine will pair well with a variety of foods, including grilled meats, herb roasted chicken and grilled eggplant parmesan.

The Harvest
The 2017 growing season was milder than what we’ve experienced the last several years, which allowed the grapes to ripen slowly and reach full flavor development, prevent excessive sugar accumulation and retain excellent acidity levels. All the grape varietals in this blend were harvested during the first and second week of October 2017.
Winemaking
Each of the lots in this blend was 100% destemmed and crushed into a small open top fermenter. The must was cold soaked for an average of three days, after which a yeast culture was added to begin fermentation. After an average of 12 days, the wines were pressed off, settled and transferred to French oak barrels for aging. The lots in this blend aged for 21 months, 25% in new French oak barrels and the remainder in neutral barrels. The blend was lightly filtered and bottled in August 2019.
