Description
The grapes for this special bottling were selected from our estate vineyard, situated near the top of Atlas Peak. The seventeen-year-old, five-acre block was planted in red, rocky, volcanic soil, yielding less than three tons per acre. This wine reveals great color, lovely aromatics, depth of flavors and complexity with the structure to age beautifully. The wine will be bottled unfined and unfiltered after twenty-five months in French oak barrels.
No winemaker information available.
