Trésor Bordeaux Red Blend

Year: 2021

Critic’s Rating:

AVA: Knight’s Valley (Sonoma County)

Tasting Notes: The 2021 Trésor opens with aromas of black currant, lardon, anise, and hints of burnt sugar and lavender. The palate is round, with upfront flavors of Santa Rosa plum and cedar, supported by evolving texture that leads to a strong, lingering finish .

Winemaker Notes: Upon entering the winery, the hand-harvested grapes are sorted, destemmed and then cold soaked for 5 days. Following the cold soak, yeast is added and pump overs commence, one to two times daily, for the duration of primary fermentation. The wine is drained and pressed, then moved to barrels for malolactic fermentation, remaining in individual lots until blending and bottling. The wine completes a total of 20 months barrel aging in wine caves, allowing for the perfect balance of fruit, tannin and oak.

Varietal Composition: 71% Cabernet Sauvignon, 8% Malbec, 8% Merlot, 7% Cabernet Franc, 6% Petit Verdot
