Wine Profile
Tasting Notes
Earthy, dried cherries, bell pepper and pencil shavings aromas. Ripe fruit on the palate with more cherry flavours, cranberry, some subtle oak, and cedar to add complexity. Moderate acidity and soft tannins lead to a lengthy finish.
Winemaker Notes
Hand harvested from the Laundry vineyard located in the Lincoln Lakeshore sub-appellation. Grapes were destemmed and crushed on top of whole cluster grapes before indigenous fermentation and malolactic conversion in oak vat. Following a total maceration time of one month, the grapes were gently pressed, and the wine settled before barrel aging for 13 months. The best five barrels were then selected and blended to create this wine.
