Waterhorse Ridge Cabernet Sauvignon
2019, Fort Ross-Seaview, Sonoma County, USA
About the Wine
Water Horse Ridge Vineyard is located in the Fort Ross-Seaview appellation, 1700 feet high on Stewart Ridge, with views of the Pacific Ocean to the west. Jesus Velasquez and Patricia Greer planted the 2-acre vineyard in 1997 and farm organically with no synthetic pesticides or fertilizers. In 2019’s wet spring and windy, mild summer, the vineyard produced a nice crop of thick-skinned, high-acid grapes. The wine emerges with great depth of fruit and tannin, along with classic notes of fresh herbs, tart cherry and evergreen forest. An excellent candidate for the cellar! Total additions: 10ppm sulfur. Alcohol 13.5% Unfined and Unfiltered
