Description
Harvest & Winemaking
Suggested Food Pairings
2017 was an excellent vintage in the mid-Atlantic, and we are thrilled that the reds are starting to make their debut. Cabernet Franc has established itself as one of the signature grapes of the region and, with over five acres planted between our two estate vineyards, we love it for its versatility as both a blender and as a standalone varietal.
The fruit was hand-picked and sorted in mid-October, cold-soaked for 5 days, then pumped over 3 times daily until fermentation was complete. The wine was left on skins for sevaral weeks before being pressed into select French barrels.
Aromas of charred wood and molasses, backed by dried fruit flavors of black raspberry and cassis. Drink now or cellar through 2027.
