Item Description
2015 Prothro Family Wines Cabernet Sauvignon Howell Mountain - 3 Bottles
Item Special Note
Our signature Cabernet Sauvignon comes from the Broken Rock Vineyard at an elevation of 800 feet on Atlas Peak. The fruit was harvested at 26.4 Brix, primary fermentation was completed in two weeks. The wine was racked into French oak barrels with medium toast and then aged in a combination of new and previously used oak for 20 months. We blended the Broken Rock Cabernet with 4 percent Petit Verdot, 3 percent Malbec, 3 percent Syrah, 1 percent Merlot, and 1 percent Cabernet Franc to yield a wine with great texture, dark plum and dark cherry, and a hint of cocoa. It exhibits soft tannins, nice acidity, and integrated oak with immediate appeal but should gain complexity over the 7 to 10 years.
