2017 Children's Reserve Cuvee
66% Cabernet Sauvignon, 17% Petit Verdot, and 17% Cabernet Franc. Denise and Brett Isenhower selected only the best barrels of each varietal to create the 2017 Children's Reserve Cuvée. The artwork was created by our three daughters when they were ages 11, 13, and 15.
Black-Red hue with the edge leading towards the red spectrum. Brilliant Clarity. Aromas of cigar box, cedar, red currant, leather, medium toasted oak, and blonde roast coffee. The mouthfeel is smooth and elegant, the oak, red fruit, acidity and tannins meld seamlessly and finish with a long and gentle caress. The freshness is maintained, and the taste is of a properly aged Left Bank Bordeaux. The CRC is classy, lovely, perfectly aged, and delicious!
All the grapes were sorted by hand and destemmed to keep as many whole berries as possible. The native yeasts fermented the wine to dryness and only the free run was retained after pressing. The CRC was aged in 100% new French Oak for 22 months.
