Wine Profile
Tasting Notes
Dark Ruby in color with aromas and richly textured layers for dark plum, black currant, and black cherry.
Vineyard Notes
Our Mountain Ranch vineyard is at the very top of Bradford Mountain. This vineyard’s volcanic red soils combine with the mountain-top micro-climate to yield especially elegant wines with richly structured fruit flavors. This wine is a selected blend of the clones 6, 8, 15, 337 Cabernet Sauvignon grown on our Mountain Ranch.
Production Notes
The grapes were crushed into small fermenters. After cold-soaking for three days to extract rich color, the must fermented on the skins for three weeks to obtain a richly extracted wine.
Food Pairing Notes
With its bold flavor, this Cabernet demands to be served with a good meal. This "Cab" goes well with wild fowl, red cabbage, aged cheeses, truffles, honey-roasted carrots or grilled red meat - especially lamb or well-marbled beef.
