Winemaker Notes
Following a mild winter the budding and flowering of the vine started early without incident. Summer was hot with a few days of rain in mid August which allowed the thick skinned clusters to plump up. Harvest was early, August 29th for us. The crop was generous with healthy grapes.
Deep ruby color with aromas of red and blue fruits, a whiff of violet. The taste reflects its aromas with the presence of earth and spice. It finishes with refined tannins.
