2007 Halter Ranch
Meritage
The Wine
The fruit for this Meritage was selected from Halter Ranch on the west side of Paso Robles. Established in 1996 and located in the historic Adelaida hills, the vineyard reaches an elevation of 1800 feet. The high density vineyard is planted on the steepest, most south facing slopes of the property in limestone rich soils and is farmed using sustainable practices. The blend of Cabernet Sauvignon and Petit Verdot is a characteristic style of Paso Robles, well integrated with bright acidity allowing a long finish.
Enjoy now through 2018.
