2019 Cabernet Franc – Clos Mullet

Original price was: $32.00.Current price is: $22.00.

One of the three Cabernet Francs that we normally produce every vintage.  The darkest and most savory of them all and from our home vineyard in Los Alamos.

Hand harvested and organiclly grown; 100% de-stemmed. Pumped over once daily. No sulfur used at harvest. Fermented on the native yeasts, followed by full malolactic by naturally occurring bacteria. The wine was fermented for two weeks then pressed to tank, settled, then racked to barrel the following day. Total of 7 ppm so2 added without filtration in keeping with our minimalist (lo-fi) philosophy.

Low Sulfur Wine.  This one is definitely “Natty”. A little on the lactic-y side… will get mousey after time. Best to drink it chilled and fast!
