Vampire Cabernet Sauvignon

Vampire Vineyards produces this Vampire Cabernet Sauvignon.  The wine is crafted from several small-berry clones of the Bordeaux varietal, and is grown in the Paso Robles region of California’s Central Coast. An extended growing season, with sunny, moderate daytime temperatures, along with cool summer nights, allows ideal fruit development at this site. Well-drained soils, rich in maritime fossils, add uniquely aromatic components to this fruit-forward wine.

Classic, small-lot fermentations, followed by aging with both European and American oak, gives full expression to the rich varietal flavors in this wine. Judiciously blended with small amounts of Merlot for softness, and Syrah for added structure – produces a ripe flavor character and a lovely aroma that will continue to develop with additional time in bottle.
