spice. On the palate it is bold and dark with notes of tobacco complemented by a touch of spicy oak and emphasized by refined tannins.
Product description
| Grapes were sourced from vineyards throughout the Columbia Valley, including the Horse Heaven Hills. The fruit was de-stemmed and gently crushed to either upright stainless steel tanks or rotary fermenters. Crushed grapes were typically “cold-soaked” for 24-48 hours then warmed and inoculated with a number of yeasts, including Mauriferm Plus, Prise de Mousse, Premier Cuvee and ICV-D21 to initiate 7-10 day fermentations. Merlot and other varieties were blended in to build structure and complexity. The wine was aged for several months in a combination of American and French oak barrels to soften and round the blend. | |
