           Alcohol:          14.8%

 

   Fermentation:          This was fermented in 60 gallon French oak barrels where it also went through malo-lactic

   fermentation to broaden the mouth-feel                           

              Aging:          This was aged in barrel for 6 months and in bottle for 9 months prior to release.

 

Residual Sugar:          0.01% (dry)

 

Cases Produced:        50

 

Winemakers Notes:

 

Lovely aroma of nectarine, peach and pineapple with a hint of nutmeg; rich in the mouth but well balanced with crisp acidity; very long finish.  red berry and rose petal aroma and cherry and tangerine taste; medium bodied with refreshing acidity.  This is great with white-flesfed seafood such as scallops, crab, shrimp, tilapia, halibut or trout.
