Cabernet Sauvignon
|
2004 Cabernet Sauvignon
Aromas and flavors of plum, with layers of blackberry, licorice, cherries, and casis. Soft tannins yield to rich flavors in this blend of 87% Cabernet Sauvignon, 5% Merlot, and 8% ... more Cabernet Franc, all grapes from our own Aetna Springs ranch vineyards. The end product is our deep, rich, full-bodied estate-bottled Cab that will age beautifully. Deep cherry and spice nose: rich velvety black fruit flavors, chocolate note; long, complex finish.

Merlot

2000 Merlot
A textbook Merlot....deep ruby-colored wine with a spicy nose....scents cherries, boysenberries, currant and plum....medium body, excellent richness, fine purity and enough acidity ... more to provide definition....a stylish, flavorful Merlot that can be drunk over the next 5-6 years.
This Merlot joins the line of our award winning Merlots: Our 1998 Merlot won a gold medal at the New World International Wine Competition, Feb.2000; silver medal at the Calif. State Fair, June 2000; and most recently, Best of Class [i.e. best of all gold medal Merlot winners in the small wineries competition] at the 2000 Los Angeles County Fair.

Chardonnay

2000 Chardonnay
Golden, full-bodied, with a rich supple and elegant texture....an intense chardonnay varietal character, smooth and buttery, with hints of toasty oak and nutmeg spice.
C ... morehardonnay grape yields are small and require special care in the wine-makig process to produce a fine, long-lived wine. Such care is reflected in the lovely balance of fruit, oak and acidity. Nov. 1, 2000 San Francisco Chronicle The Chronicle's Top 100 Wines for 2000: "Aetna Springs 1998 Chardonnay $16. Here is a lovely, bright Chardonnay with great balance, citrus flavors, pear and apple and not at all heavily oaked. A great value!"
