Sit back and relax with a glass of Alma de Cattleya Red Wine as winemaker Bibiana González Rave guides you through tasting notes, perfect pairings, and her inspiration behind every bottle.
Fruit for our Red Wine is grown in the rolling hillsides and sedimentary soil of Sonoma County. The grapes are harvested at night and immediately sorted at the winery. The fruit is fermented in stainless steel, close-top tanks. There is a short cold soak before the fermentation is allowed to begin. When fermentation is complete, the wine is drained from the tank and skins are gently pressed. This wine is aged for eighteen months in French oak barrels, all neutral barrels.
TASTING PROFILE
Layers of blackcurrant, dark chocolate, and cassis burst from the glass of this red wine, as rich tannins and bright, youthful acidity coat the palate.
