2008 Grove Street Cabernet Sauvignon, Sonoma County, 750ml

A smooth and well-balanced Cabernet.

We're sorry but this product is currently unavailable.

Our Sonoma County Cabernet has concentrated ruby red color and is bright to the rim. The complexity shows well in the nose with black cherry, cassis, black licorice and black plum and a crushed violet aroma. Fresh, bright fruit follows in the mouth and it is very balanced between acidity and fruit. Well integrated fine tannins. Red fruit mid-palate with no missing pieces. This very smooth Cabernet will go well with grilled or roasted meats and poultry. It’s also an excellent sipping wine.

The rugged northern reaches of Sonoma County are recognized as one of the premier growing regions for Bordeaux varietals. The warmer inland temperatures of this mountainous region in northern Sonoma County are cooled at night by the cold maritime air that flows from the coast up the Russian River Valley. The mountain ridges provide shallow and rocky soils that add impressive depth and concentration to the flavor and intensity of our 2008 Sonoma Cabernet Sauvignon. Hand harvested grapes were picked over a two week span in mid-October. The harvest of 2008 provided full development at ripeness levels ideal for preserving varietal accuracy and structure. Whole berries were fermented in tanks before pressing and then moved to barrels for malolactic fermentation. The wine was barrel aged a full 24 months in French oak. The Cabernet Sauvignon was blended with 5% Petite Sirah, enhancing both the aromatics and the flavor profile. A powerful wine with great finesse.

TTB Tax Class: 2
Varietal Notes: 95% Cabernet Sauvignon and 5% Petite Sirah
Alcohol content: 14.5
Harvest Dates: October 7 - 20, 2008
Winemaker Notes: The fruit entered the winery in cold state after having been hand picked in the early morning hours in order to maintain and insure varietal accuracy. Clusters were hand sorted and then de-stemmed. Whole berries were fermented in small tanks for an extended cold soak of 5 to 6 days during which punch down was done by hand twice daily. Spontaneous wild yeast fermentation took place in the late stages of cold soak at which time the lots were very gently pressed in order to keep minimal contact with solids. The wine was then moved to barrel for its secondary malolactic fermentation.

Barrel aged for a full 24 months in French oak barrels. Assorted Bordeaux cooperages have provided barrels for this wine.
Harvest Notes: Hand harvested over a 2 week period in mid-October–the 2008 harvest provided full development of ripeness levels ideal for preserving varietal accuracy & structure.
Vineyard Notes: This hand crafted wine is produced exclusively from multiple vineyards in the key growing regions for Bordeaux varietals within the Sonoma County growing region, including the Alexander Valley and Dry Creek Valley AVA’s (American Viticultural Areas). Grape selection consists of Cabernet Clones 4, 15, and 337. Vineyards range in size from 5 to 20 acres.

Soils from the bench-land areas are alluvial sedimentary composites of sandy loam and clay. Hillside vineyard sites are a combination of alluvial with coarse sand and loam with gravel and larger rock deposits at the upper levels of the hillside vineyard sites.
