2005
Sadler-Wells Cabernet Sauvignon |
 |
Vintage Notes: 2005
California Cabernet Sauvignons will undoubtedly be the best
cabernets since the highly regaled 1997.
The long growing season
brought us excellent fruit concentration and firm tannins.
Once again we sourced grapes from 3 different vineyards; the
majority is sourced from one in the Mayacamus mountain range
that is truly a “gem” property, one in the Sonoma mountains
and one from the valley in Kenwood. This wine is 100%
cabernet sauvignon.

2005 Sadler-Wells Pinot
Noir |
Vintage Notes: Our 2005 pinot
noir is quite a compelling wine. The aromas, flavors, and
textures, as well as mineral characters suggest a pinot noir of
Burgundy. We acquire our pinot selection from the Manuel Franco
single vineyard we believe has proven to be of grand cru.
Holding back our release allows the wine to settle in the cellar
maximizing the character and presenting maturity, balance and
elegance at once.
