Quilt Threadcount Cabernet Sauvignon Paso Robles 2022 750ml
Thee grapes were harvested early in the morning so the fruit would arrive at the winery while still cool to preserve the vineyard-fresh flavors. Sourced from some of the best vineyards in Paso Robles, to make this one of a kind Cabernet Sauvignon. After de stemming the berries, the fruit was cryo-extracted and then cold-soaked to soften the skins and allow for ideal extraction. During fermentation, punch-downs and pump-overs were performed in a combination of closed and open-top stainless steel fermenters in order to extract color and tannins; during this process, temperatures were kept low to build mouthfeel and maximize flavors. Finally, the wines are aged in 50% new French oak for between 12-16 months. After the wine underwent malolactic fermentation, it was racked every 6 months before the final blend was complete.

AROMA: Rich notes of chocolate, black currant, ripe blackberry, and hints of cedar and leather.
