2019 Ink Grade 'Andosol' Red Wine
Product Details
What it Tastes Like
Black cherry, fresh raspberry, and crushed violet burst forward alongside notes of cracked black pepper and pomegranate. Medium-bodied and energetic, it balances concentrated mountain fruit with vibrant natural acidity, cedar spice, and an unexpectedly long, graceful finish.
How it’s Made
Demeter-certified biodynamic fruit undergoes a three-year extended aging regimen, spending one year in used upright oak tanks followed by two years in French oak barrels, 30% new. This lengthy oak program polishes the mountain tannins while building savory depth and structural integration.
Where it’s From
The Ink Grade Estate Vineyard, clinging to extreme, terraced slopes in the northeast corner of Howell Mountain in Napa Valley. Rugged volcanic tufa soils and cool high-elevation air impart intense phenolic concentration and distinct tension to the grapes.
