Tasting Notes

The nose exhibits aromas of ripe cherry and fig mingling with cassis, dill, cardamom, and hints of leather. This vintage produced an especially lush palate with tannin softly enveloping the mouth followed by acid sprightly dancing across the tongue.This vintage is a wine for a special occassion, pairing perfectly with lamb sirloin or a standing rib roast.

Vineyard Designation

Bonny's Vineyard

Vineyard Notes

A warm summer lead to a historically early pick for this site. High temperatures ushered in sugar resulting in higher alcohol levels than is typical as well as more developed fruit. This wine will be more approachable when it is young and will not require decanting.

Winemaker Notes

The fruit was hand-picked into macro bins, de-stemmed and crushed into stainless steel tanks, cold soaked for 24 hours, inoculated and pumped over one to three times per day. The wine was pressed before finishing primary. Once dry, the wine was racked to barrel and inoculated for malolactic fermentation. The wine was racked at the finish of secondary and twice more before bottling. Though the wine was filtered owing to its time in barrel, fining was determined unnecessary.
