Peirano Estate Vineyards The Other Cabernet Sauvignon

WINEMAKERS NOTES: Making a truly wonderful wine begins with only the best estate grown fruit from the heart of the Lodi Appellation. We HAND PICK into small bins to keep the fruit intact for its trip to the winery. The 2014 blend consists of 50% Cabernet Sauvignon 40% Merlot and 10% Syrah. Once we have received the fruit at the winery we keep each varietal separate through the entire fermentation and aging process. We then make several blends and sample each one until we have found one that is greater than its parts. TASTING NOTES: One is immediately struck by the vibrant color and aromas of spicy blackcurrants baked cherries and blackberries. The Palate explodes with a wave of sweet black cherries strawberries and black currants with a hint of spice leading to a long totally seductive finish. – Peirano Estate Vineyards
