2008 Compilations

This complex wine is a blend of 44% Cabernet Franc, 24% Cabernet Sauvignon, 22% Merlot, 5% Malbec and  5% Petite Verdot.  The Cabernet Sauvignon grapes come from our hilltop Temecula Hills Winery at the 2,900 foot elevation planted on a steep hillside in fractured rock and decomposed granite soil conditions. The Merlot, Cabernet Franc, Malbec and Petite Verdot varietals are harvested from our sister winery location at Oak Mountain Winery at an elevation of 1,450 feet. Combining these two vineyards together makes this a very unique and fruit forward Bordeaux blend. The flavors are rich and pure with lovely plum, blackberry fruit and sweet oak. Elegant, balanced, deep, well-structured with a long, complex finish. Great with Beef, lamb, goose or brie & cheddar cheese. Silver medal West Coast Wine Competition
