2016 Cabernet Franc Rose - Keuka Lake Vineyard

Dry Rose Table Wine
72 Cases Produced
Alcohol: 11.6%
Total sulfite addition: 35 ppm
Soil: Deeper loam over shale and limestone
Grape: 100% Cabernet Franc
- Crushed and destemmed
- Ambient Yeast
- Old French Oak Barrels

ELEVAGE: Hand picked grapes were crushed and destemmed and put into one-ton bins for a 3 day maceration before being bucketed into the half-ton bladder press. Settled juice was pumped into old French oak barrels to ferment which finished up in June of 2017, including malo-lactic fermentation. In September the wine was racked off its lees and gravity bottled by hand without fining or filtration.

TASTING NOTE: Lots of color and lots of sediment. Nose of raspberry leaf and melon with flavors of the same in the mouth. Soft tannin and juicy fruit with a clean, bright finish.
