Cabernet Sauvignon Padrone 2019
USA, Napa Valley
Cabernet Sauvignon, Cabernet Franc, Merlot, Malbec
Description
The grapes were picked in the range of 24.5-26 Brix. The vintage yielded concentrated berries with compact flavors, in spite of the high yields. The grapes were destemmed, thoroughly hand sorted and fermented with native yeast. 18 months in 65% new French Oak allowed the wine to soften with the aromas developing harmoniously. The wine is unfined and unfiltered.
