Hand-harvested grapes. Long Maceration w/o destemming. Fermented in wooden tanks & aged on lees in second-use oak casks for 8 months. Violets, bacon fat & black cherry all interplay on the nose. Deep black cherry & juicy plum flavors meshed w/ candied violets & cool strawberry flavors on the palate. The moderate tannins highlight the fruity components on the finish. Unfiltered.
