2022 Hermann J. Wiemer, 'Magdalena Vineyard' Estate Grown Cabernet Franc, Seneca Lake, USA
$39.99
Pre-order item. Expected to land early May 2025.
Our single-vineyard iteration of our pillar red variety, Cabernet Franc, with more weight and structure than our traditional version. This fruit hails from a two-and-a-half-acre block within our Magdalena Vineyard- a warmer site which produces fruit that is amongst our ripest picks in each vintage. This additional development yields bold tannins up front which advance into red fruit transitioning to purple; black cherries, red plums, holiday seasoned cranberries. Texture, depth, and freshness are found in green flavors and garden soil earthiness, thanks to the rain of the earlier part of the '22 vintage. A drier and hotter fall is to thank for the counterbalancing fruit and composition.
