Winemaking Notes
Selected from different barrel lots originating from several sub-appellations, the components in this wine were selected based on structure and their approachability. The wines were aged independently in new and previously filled French oak barrels from select coopers for just over one year so the barrel component in the final wine is a part of the wine, and not overwhelming. The core of this wine (Merlot) gives the wine a soft midpalate with some dried fruit character, while the Cabernet Franc and Malbec gives the final wine an expressive floral/herbal character with structure and a solid backbone of acidity on the finish.
