Winemaker Notes
This premium blend features 67% Merlot and 33% Cabernet Franc. The Cabernet Franc grapes were vinified in a passimento style. These grapes were air dried over a period of six weeks. After this process, the grapes had lost nearly 30% of their moisture leaving the winemaker highly concentrated, partially raisinated, Cabernet Franc berries. These berries were then fermented in open top French oak barrels over the period of a month to allow for maximum extraction.
Food Pairing Notes
The perfect pairings for this intense, rich wine are Beef Wellington, venison and firm cheeses.
