Vines planted in 1971 in Alkoomi’s gravelly loam soils. The vineyard was planted out block-by-block over some 40 years on north, south and east-west facing slopes. At least eight separate blocks comprising this wine, resulting in great complexity and depth. Grapes are harvested and crushed into fermenters via a chiller for a pre-fermentation cold soak of three or four days. Eighteen months aging in French oak hogsheads (Francois Freres, Demptos and St. Martin), about one-fifth of which are new. No fining, minimal filtration and sulfur addition.Bright and fresh blackberry flavors continue on the medium-bodied palate with savor dark chocolate mingling with the fine-grained dusty tannin structure.
