Wine Details
Price:
$21.06 per bottle
Description:
ample fruit combined with elements of smoke and pepper make this a Cabernet Sauvignon that displays the classic terroir of the Finger Lakes. Best with a couple years of age in the bottle. Cabernet Sauvignon in the Finger Lakes expressed itself with intense, forward berry fruit with clean, slightly hollow middle and well-defined supple finish. Fruit is fully crushed with some stem and whole cluster inclusion. Fermentation is initiated without extensive cold soaking and progresses very warm with aggressive cap management. Usually wine is press at about dryness and aged in 60 gallon oak barrels. Barrels will show heavy to extra heavy toast and will moderately new. Aromas and flavors of heavy toast barrels enhance smoky, rich fruit elements. Small amounts of Merlot and Cabernet Franc are typically blended to help bolster mid palate and highlight fruit complexity.
