Production: 114 cases Vineyard: Herringer Estates, Clarksburg, Sacramento Co.
 Vine Age: 18 years Planted Area: 17 acres to Malbec Established: 1978 Soil Type: clay and loam 
Winemaking : We destemmed this Malbec, 100% whole berry and fermented it in very large S-bin open-air fermenters. The native ferment immediately took off the first night and the wine was completely dry and pressed off one week from picking. The short time on the skins yielded a very aromatic and light bodied wine, which we pressed into old French Oak barrels for 7 months aging before we bottled without fining or filtration. Tasting Notes: Aromas and flavors of plum, black cherry, fresh leather jacket, coffee and dusty chocolate notes. All of the classic markers of a Malbec wrapped in an aromatic, lifted and zippier package.
