Intensive canopy management is used to expose the fruit to the sun and sea breezes. Only the finest grape clusters were hand harvested, sorted and whole cluster pressed. The fruit exhibits melon and peach flavors.
A harmonious blend of both tank fermented and barrel fermented wine, this wine has aromas and flavors of apple and orange peel, a hint of vanilla and smoke and a delicate acidity that helps the wine to finish through.
Our cabernet sauvignon is blended with merlot to add suppleness and breadth to the palate. Aromas and flavors of chocolate, raspberry and black cherry overlay a smooth and velvety texture.
Osprey’s Dominion Merlot offers classic dark plum aromas with blackberry preserves, sweet cedar, smoke and vanilla. And while the nose is rather fruity, the palate isn’t overly so with rich flavors of chocolate, mint and tobacco joining the party. The medium tannins are there, but not overly aggressive. With another year or so in bottle they should integrate even more. Overall, this wine is medium on body but full on flavor.
