Winemakers Notes

The same depth of pure blackberry and raspberry jam fills your mouth with hints of roasted coffee and anise.

Jam-packed and concentrated in the mouth, the finish is substantial, luxuriant and sensibly tannic.
—Winemaker Bob Cabral

This precocious start, followed by a growing season of moderate temperatures, resulted in a very early harvest. Although we harvested the grapes two to three weeks earlier than normal, the long season provided ample time for the fruit to reach full maturity and develop extraordinary color and intense flavors. A cooling trend in mid-September offered the Chardonnay additional hang time prior to harvest.
