Brief Glossary of wine design of our wines:
Blend: Assamblage.Composition of different grapes.
Passes: Different harvests performed on the same plant as it matures. In each harvest only a few grapes are harvested, leaving others on the vine to fully mature.
Tails: Southern hemisphere of the cluster. The lower section. Has a particular level of acidity, concentration of sugars and anthocyanins. Harvested first for freshness, lower alcohol level and subtle colors.
Shoulders: Northern hemisphere of the cluster. The upper section. Stay a little longer on the grapevine to achieve a more concentrated wine with moderate acidity and intense colors.
Stowage: Time in the bottle. Bottled 1/3/2011.
