Arnot-Roberts California Red 2022
California // USA
A blend of 57% Cabernet Sauvignon, 21% Merlot and 22% Cabernet Franc, and is inspired by California wines from a previous era. It is built from amazing low-yielding sites but made in an approachable style. The base of the wine is Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot from Bedrock Vineyard, expertly grown in rock-strewn soils in the heart of the Sonoma Valley. The majority of the Cabernet Franc in this blend hails from Persia Vineyard, located in an isolated valley in a rocky pocket of the Chalk Hill appellation, close to our beloved Clajeux Vineyard. The final component of this wine is a small batch of Cabernet Sauvignon along with a tiny bit of Cabernet Franc and Merlot, coming from the Las Cimas Vineyard, perched in the coastal hills overlooking the Russian River Valley.
These three amazing sites were harvested and fermented separately then aged in both neutral French oak barrels and a concrete tank for 10 months. The resulting wine is fresh and vibrant with bright aromatics, savory tannins and punchy dark fruit, and remains light enough on the palate to pair gracefully with a wide variety of foods at your table. Further aging is not required to enjoy this youthful wine but, if desired, it has the structure and framework to evolve with further cellaring.
