2021 Claret
54% cabernet sauvignon, 23% cabernet franc, 15% petit verdot, 8% merlot
Our Estate Claret is a Red blend inspired by the great wines of Bordeaux. Using the Cabernet Sauvignon growing in our cooler bench land sites. Blend changes from year to year based on the distinct vintage character of the Cabernets and other varietals. 2021 was a small crop but made delightfully rich and savory reds, particularly the Cabernet Franc, which draws out the length on the palate.
