Grapes for this Cab were sourced primarily from their Cloverdale Estate vineyard in the heart of Alexander Valley. This Cab underwent a maceration period of 9 to 20 days which brought rich color, medium body, balanced mouthfeel and excellent aging potential. 100% Cabernet Sauvignon, the wine was aged for 19 months in primarily French oak barrels, 33% new.
Winemaker Notes:
Folie à Deux Alexander Valley Cabernet Sauvignon is a pure expression of its region. Concentrated aromas of graphite, boysenberry, dark cherry, a hint of menthols and black olive sit atop clove and brown sugar notes. Rich, round and robust in structure, this wine showcases ripe, concentrated flavors of dark fruit, complemented by chocolate, molasses, tobacco spice and a balanced finish.
