Tasting Notes:
85% Cabernet Sauvignon, 9 % Merlot, 3% Petit Verdot, 1 % Malbec, 1% Cabernet Franc, and 1% Syrah
Deep ruby red in color. Bold cassis aromas with ripe layers of black plum and dark cherries, complemented with complex notes of clove, molasses, bay, and vanilla. Full and dense mouthfeel with rich, velvety tannins. Flavors of blackberry, cocoa, tobacco, mocha, and cassis fill the palate with generous body and supple texture.
Winemaker Notes:
Our Mount Veeder vines speak a language all of their own. Becoming uent in that language, fully understanding all of its subtleties and nuances, is the trick to making great wine from mountain vineyards. Over the years, we have come to know the contours, dips, and ridges of the mountain—and the sequence of ripening that is the key to it all.
A Mount Veeder harvest is a Zen-like art of moving across a three dimensional chessboard. Take the uphill side of the vine only, or the downhill side, or just the north, south, east, or west section. We pick only what’s ready and at peak avor and ripeness. It’s a complex endeavor, and needs to be carved with precision, matching areas of the block that are at the same level of ripeness, and leaving other areas to mature another week or more.
