It is a lighter style cabernet with hints of caramel and a smooth finish that complements lighter meats and even fish dishes like salmon with a ginger soy marinade. <br><br> <span style="font-weight: bold; color: #1E347C;">Vineyard Notes:</span><br> Our Cabernet Sauvignon is from established <a href="http://wine.appellationamerica.com/wine-region/Dry-Creek-Valley.html" target=_new>Dry Creek Valley</a> growers. We've been looking at various sites, getting to know the growers and sampling fruit to identify which blocks are best for Mike's minimalist winemaking style. We are constantly on the lookout for growers with deep experience and unbridled passion for growing the best wine grapes. <Br><br> It all starts in the vineyards. From there, our goal is to preserve the essential characteristics of the fruit, to produce wines that are approachable, friendly and pair well with food. Our style is light on the oak and focuses on the fruit flavors in the wine. <br><br> <span style="font-weight: bold; color: #1E347C;">Technical Notes: </span><br> <table style= border="0" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0"> <tbody> <tr> <td>Appellation:</td> <td>Dry Creek Valley</td> </tr> <tr> <td>Harvest:</td> <td>September 16, 2003</td> </tr> <tr> <td>Brix at Harvest:</td> <td> 26 </td> </tr> <tr> <td>TA:</td> <td> .57 g/100 mL</td> </tr> <tr> <td>pH:</td> <td> 3.85 </td> </tr> <tr> <td>Aging:</td> <td>18 months</td> </td> </tr> <tr> <td>Oak:</td> <td>50% French; 50% American, 25 % new </td> </tr> <tr> <td>Alcohol:</td> <td>14.6%</td> </tr> </tbody> </table> </div> <br> <a href="http://www.nexternal.com/flatiron/?category=76" style="text-decoration: none; color: #a60000; font-weight: bold;" target=_top> Return to Amista Wine List</a> </P> <P><B>Other products in the winery <A HREF="http://www.nexternal.com/flatiron/Category76" TITLE="Amista Vineyards">Amista Vineyards</A>:</B> <BR clear=left><BR><A HREF=http://www.nexternal.com/flatiron/Product313 TITLE="Amista 2003 Zinfandel"><IMG SRC="https://store.nexternal.com/flatiron/images/Amista-Zinfandel-03[th].jpg" ALIGN=left ALT="Amista 2003 Zinfandel" NAME="Amista 2003 Zinfandel" BORDER=0 HSPACE=10></A> <A HREF=http://www.nexternal.com/flatiron/Product313 TITLE="Amista 2003 Zinfandel">Amista 2003 Zinfandel</A> -- <a href="http://wine.appellationamerica.com/wine-region/Dry-Creek-Valley.html" target=_new>Dry Creek Valley</a> <BR clear=left><BR><A HREF=http://www.nexternal.com/flatiron/Product314 TITLE="Amista 2003 Syrah, Morningsong Vineyards"><IMG SRC="https://store.nexternal.com/flatiron/images/Amista-Syrah-03[th].jpg" ALIGN=left ALT="Amista 2003 Syrah, Morningsong Vineyards" NAME="Amista 2003 Syrah, Morningsong Vineyards" BORDER=0 HSPACE=10></A> <A HREF=http://www.nexternal.com/flatiron/Product314 TITLE="Amista 2003 Syrah, Morningsong Vineyards">Amista 2003 Syrah, Morningsong Vineyards</A> -- <a href="http://wine.appellationamerica.com/wine-region/Dry-Creek-Valley.html" target=_new>Dry Creek Valley</a> </P> <BR clear=left><BR><P> <B>RELATED PRODUCTS</B> <BR clear=left><BR><A HREF=http://www.nexternal.com/flatiron/Product314 TITLE="Amista 2003 Syrah, Morningsong Vineyards"><IMG SRC="https://store.nexternal.com/flatiron/images/Amista-Syrah-03[th].jpg" ALIGN=left ALT="Amista 2003 Syrah, Morningsong Vineyards" NAME="Amista 2003 Syrah, Morningsong Vineyards" BORDER=0 HSPACE=10></A> <A HREF=http://www.nexternal.com/flatiron/Product314 TITLE="Amista 2003 Syrah, Morningsong Vineyards">Amista 2003 Syrah, Morningsong Vineyards</A> -- A big mouthful with hints of smoke and spice.<BR clear=left><BR><A HREF=http://www.nexternal.com/flatiron/Product313 TITLE="Amista 2003 Zinfandel"><IMG SRC="https://store.nexternal.com/flatiron/images/Amista-Zinfandel-03[th].jpg" ALIGN=left ALT="Amista 2003 Zinfandel" NAME="Amista 2003 Zinfandel" BORDER=0 HSPACE=10></A> <A HREF=http://www.nexternal.com/flatiron/Product313 TITLE="Amista 2003 Zinfandel">Amista 2003 Zinfandel</A> -- A mellow style zinfandel with fresh berry fruit and wild strawberry.</P> <BR clear=left><BR><P><A HREF="http://www.nexternal.com/flatiron" TITLE="Appellation America Products">Appellation America Products</A></P> <BR clear=left><BR><BR><BR><BR> <BR><A HREF="http://wine.appellationamerica.com">Appellation America</A> <BR>Appellation America <A HREF="http://www.nexternal.com" TITLE="ecommerce software">ecommerce software</A> powered by Nexternal
