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.

Its robe is a dark ruby with hues of bleu. Its aromas open up with violets and the taste is more on the strawberries and raspberries.

It can be enjoyed in its youth with barbecued grilled meats, charcuterie and vegetarian dishes.
