Cabernet/Merlot "Indigeaux" North Yuba

2018
United States
California

Cabernet Sauvignon (65%), Merlot (30%), and Semillon (5%) from Renaissance. 2018 was a beautiful growing season, and both the Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot were able to hang on the vine and achieve full ripeness without any threat of smoke or heat. The Indigeaux was picked in multiple passes from September 1st through September 10th, and all three varieties were whole-cluster foot-stomped and co-fermented in open top bins. The fermentation was punched down twice a day, and after macerating for seven days the wine was pressed into neutral French oak barrels where it matured on the lees for nearly four years. Bottled unfined and unfiltered with a 30ppm sulfur addition. 103 cases produced.
