2007 Noblesse Blanc
- This wine is teeming with aromas of fresh fruit – orange, lemon, melon, and pineapple. The palate gives way to aromas of orange zest against an off-dry background complemented by robust acidity. A blend dominated by Vidal Blanc, with Seyval Blanc, Viognier, and Chardonnay. Pair with lighter fare such as salads and cheeses. 0.8% residual sugar. Drink within 1 year.
2006 Cabernet Franc – 3rd bottling
- This wine has seen 17 months in barrel and its extensive élevage has yielded a wine with beautifully developed tannins and harmonious integration with the fruit and oak spice. Lots of mellow tannins provide for substantial weight and sweetness on the palate. Aromas of mocha, caramel, and graphite against a classic Bordeaux base of restrained fruit. Cellar for several months and drink through 2010. 77% Cabernet Franc, 22% Cabernet Sauvignon, and 1% Petit Verdot.
