{ 2021 Red Experiment N6.1 }

Sometimes you need an external frame of reference to reshape ideas or a new conversation to challenge perceptions. With this in mind, we decided to purchase a small amount of fruit from a neighboring vineyard.

First, we walked the rows, scrutinized the clone selection and studied the row orientation and trellis setup – learning the why and how of our neighbor’s site. Their different approach provides us the opportunity to learn and improve what we do here at the estate.

The 2021 Experiment N6.1 is our sixth vintage in this series. This blend of predominantly Cabernet Sauvignon radiates notes of fresh plum, black cherry, fresh crushed blackberry, dark chocolate, red tobacco and wet stone. Round and redolent across the palate, this neighborly adventure will continue to tell its delightful tale well into the future.
