A bouquet of black cherries, cassis, cinnamon, Morel mushrooms and earth fills your nose at first. Concentrated flavors of wild berries, Asian spice, espresso and forest floor develop throughout the broad mouth feel. Extracted rich grape tannins are felt across your palate but carry through nicely with racy acidity in the finish.
—Winemaker Bob Cabral
A hot spell in March followed by a warm spring influenced an unusually early bloom and budbreak. 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.
