Description
Tasting Notes:
The 2008 growing season delivered grapes with excellent color and structure. This wine displays a deep complexity in the nose, with aromas suggesting blackberry jam, sweet spices, and a touch of freshly turned earth.
Vineyard Notes:Our estate vineyards thrive on glacial soils comprised of broken shale and sandy loam, delivering grapes with a vibrant expression of terroir. The eastern facing slopes capture the early morning sun and warm Seneca lake breezes, making for ideal ripening conditions.
Food Pairing:rare red meats, hearty stews, or lamb.
