Tasting Notes: Cabernet Sauvignon that was dried to achieve concentration of sugars and tannins was fermented warm and aged for 24 months in new and used French oak was blended with Cabernet Franc, fermented at warm temperatures with a 32 day maceration and 16 months of ageing in new and used French and American oak was blended to achieve this intense and powerful red.
Food Pairing: Pasta bolognese, rich steaks with horseradish
Winemaker’s Notes: The varietals used for this wine were processed and fermented separately under cool conditions in stainless steel using selected yeast strains. Blended for a tart balance, this wine underwent the Charmat process to produce the carbonation and minimal yeast contact to maintain freshness and fruitiness.
