2007 SINGLE VINEYARD LIMITED CABERNET SAUVIGNON
Tasting notes
Good color. Pretty spicy-floral nose with clove and orange blossom, creamy ripe red-dark fruit, white pepper and hints of toast, vanilla, butterscotch and anise. Clove spice, white pepper and lively red and black cherry fruit on the palate. This is a medium weight wine that is vibrant and lively, with good acid, well balanced tannins and a long finish.
Grapes are from Red Mountain Vineyard Block “C”. The grapes were fermented in stainless then pressed to barrel, where they completed alcoholic and malo-lactic fermentations. The wine was then 100% barrel aged about 12 months in 50% new oak consisting of 75% American and 25 % Hungarian. The 4 barrels used in this wine were meticulously selected from the 45 barrels that made up the wine from this vineyard.
Harvest Notes: 2007 was another great vintage in Washington State and the wines from Hedges reflect this with another in a recent series of outstanding wines. Mostly even temperatures and little wind and rain during bloom made for nice set. The summer was hot, but not too hot, and typical fall ripening conditions of warm days (80-85) and cool nights (45-50) began in mid-September and continued through October.
