cracked black pepper

yet also undeniably coiled and powerful

revealing a gregariously fruity personality of juicy blueberries and fresh black cherries to start

The harvest started late with only limited botrytis development

2008 Côte Bonneville "DuBrul Vineyard" Cab blend Clos Solene cracked black pepperOur flagship wine is from the steep, rocky, south facing hillside vines. Roughly 60% Cabernet Sauvginon and 40% Merlot, this is the clarion expression of DuBrul Vineyard. Due to the extreme terrain, the vines produce small berries, small clusters, and low yields of only 1 2 tons per acre. Intensity of fruit, rich texture, layered complexitiy, silky tannins, and lasting finish are the hallmarks of these rows.
