The wine was then drained off the skins and placed in 30% new french oak barrels.” – jenner vineyards,,wine~us pinot noir~united states~~california~,2013,y,red,y 580,008985402092,1wild horse cabernet sauvignon petit verdot malbec [united states],750ml,29,18. 41,198. 82,12,,n,in just over 30 years wild horse winery & vineyards has grown from humble beginnings to take its place as one of the central coast’s leading premium winemakers.
