Vineyard Notes
Cabernet Franc (Bordeaux Clone 312, 326) from Block 1 of our original Meadowbrook Vineyard. These vines grow in Califon Sandy Loam soil in North-south orientation on an eastern slope. Farmed sustainably: no irrigation, no tilling.
Production Notes
Hand-harvested clusters left as whole berries - small-batch, open-top fermentations. Gentle maceration with 15 days of skin-contact. Aged in neutral French oak barrels for 10 months. No fining, light filtration. Under 30 ppm sulfites added prior to bottling. 120 cases produced.
