What to Expect

The classic Bordeaux blends rely on either Merlot or Cabernet Sauvignon for the bulk of the wine with additions of Cabernet Franc, Petit Verdot, and Malbec helping to add complexity, color, body and structure to the finished wine.

Winemakers Notes

Tasting Notes: A green harvest in May reduces clusters to one or two per stock. At harvest the clusters are handpicked, sorted, destemmed, and the skins broken rather than crushed. Fermentation with selected yeasts takes place in a combination of temperature controlled stainless steel and lined open-top fermentors. A maceration period of 20 days including fermentation, with pumping over of the juice and manual punching down of the cap, is followed by natural malolactic fermentation in tank. The wine is placed in oak, consisting primarily of 225-liter barriques with some capacity in 500-litre read more...

Date: December 2008 Tasting Bar Price: $3.80/taste Half Off Tuesday Price: $1.90/tasteThe 2004 Crognolo is vibrant and full of life. Open and sweet on the nose, it reveals generous ripe red fruit on a medium bodied frame with excellent delineation as well as finesse. Made from a blend of mostly Sangiovese with a little Merlot, it should be at finest between 2008-2016.
