Todd on this wine: A fun take on Finger Lakes Cab Franc aged for 18 months in puncheon. It took on some bright tropical notes on top of the usual cherry fruit and peppery finish of NY Cab Franc.”

Vineyard: At Last Farm, Finger Lakes. Sustainable (no herbicide)

 

Vinification: hand-harvested, 50% whole-cluster and 50% destemmed fruit macerated for 4 weeks with daily hand punch-downs. It was pressed directly to a neutral French Oak puncheon and aged for 18 months without racking or stirring before being racked to tank for bottling. SO2: 20ppm at crush.

 

Personality: Bright red raspberry and black cherry fruit with some tropical fruit interwoven with peppery and herbal undertones.
