2002 Bells Echo Vineyards

Cabernet Sauvignon

 

Ok, we still like making Cabernet. This one comes from the Feliz Creek area, West of Hopland. The vineyard is in a small valley and is planted to several Cabernet clones.  We made this wine from grapes harvested in several different areas of the vineyard.  As one expects from Mendocino wines, it's bright and well-structured. We chose 4 barrels out of 11, blended in small amounts of Petite Verdot, Cabernet Franc and Merlot to find the final blend. Older (but with a lot of OoLaLa! left) French barrels were used. We find spices, red fruit characters and light oak conbined with a lingering finish.  Check it out and see what comes to mind!

Alcohol 14.1%            $28 / 750 ml

Approximately 100 cases were produced.


 
 
 

2002 Mendocino County Cabernet

Ok, you're making dinner or going out...  You want a good wine to have with pasta or that big steak you'll sneak past the doctor.  This is the ticket.  Bright, complex and just a touch of sweetness to make it, well... go down like it was just meant to be.

This Mendocino Cabernet is blended with a wild variety of things.  It's got Zin, Syrah, Petite Sirah, some Carignane, Merlot, a splash of Cab Franc and Petite Verdot. Good with just about anything (Broccoli Beef from Yuet Lee in Chinatown comes to mind).

We were after an "old-timey wine" and think we hit pretty close to the zone. How about with Toll House Cookies? Who knows? We like to think that if you like it, it's good! Check it out and let us know what you think it goes best with... We may start a cab/food blog..hmmm..
