Fact Sheet

2007 Cabernet Sauvignon

Huerhuero Vineyard

The Wine

The fruit for our 2007 Cabernet Sauvignon was selected from our Jardine and Huerhuero vineyards, which are planted on the premium clones 6, 15 and 337. All the fruit was handpicked at night in small lots to ensure perfect quality and ripeness. It was then destemmed and gently crushed into temperature controlled stainless steel tanks. To preserve varietal character, 45% of the lot was left as whole berries, with pumpovers taking place regularly to enhance color and tannin extraction from the skins. After pressing, the wine was racked into barrels to complete malolactic fermentation and aging.

Enjoy now through 2016.
