------------------------------------------------------------

WINEMAKING NOTES
Our Chardonnay is made from 100% grapes from Casanel Vineyards. After hand-harvesting and
sorting in the vineyard, the grapes were gently transported in small lugs and were stored for one
night in a cold room. The day after, the grapes were sorted again on a sorting table before pressing.
Cold-settling occurred for one night, followed by alcoholic fermentation in stainless steel tank.
Toward the middle of the fermentation, 32% of the juice was sent to French Burgundy barrels to
finish the fermentation, while the final 68% remained in stainless steel tank. After a few weeks of “sur lie” aging (aging on the lees while in oak barrel) and a gentle “bâtonnage” (lees stirring), the wine was racked off the lees and sent back into oak barrels to continue the aging process. In July, we proceeded to protein stabilization and cold stabilization before hand-bottling on the Estate, which occurred in August

TASTING & PAIRING NOTES
citrus – lemon custard – lime - pineapple - vanilla - bread - pastry - long – rich – nice balance between acidity from the fruit and creaminess from the aging in barrels
Rich dishes – dishes with creamy sauces – lean protein – pizza, flatbread – versatile with cheese, goes well with bloomy rind cheese

WINEMAKING NOTES
Our Cabernet Franc is made from 100% grapes grown in Timberville, Virginia, located in the Shenandoah Valley. After hand-harvesting and sorting in the vineyard, the grapes were gently transported via small lugs to the winery where they were destemmed and sorted again on a vibrating sorting table before being sent to stainless steel tank by gravity. After 3 days of cold maceration, the alcoholic fermentation was started and occurred around 55 degrees F. Pump-overs were done every day during the fermentation and, also during the warm post-maceration, that lasted about 1-2 weeks. This wine was then pressed and sent to barrels where the malolactic fermentation occurred rapidly. After racking from malolactic fermentation, the wine returned to barrels to age for 22 months entirely in French oak Bordeaux barrels (34% new, 66% neutral oak barrels). No fining of the wine occurred. After the appropriate aging time elapsed, the wine was simply racked, sterile-filtered, and hand-bottled on the Estate.

WINEMAKING NOTES

Our Cabernet Sauvignon is made from 100% estate grapes from Casanel Vineyards. After hand- harvesting and sorting in the vineyard, the grapes were gently transported via small lugs to the winery where they were destemmed and sorted again on a vibrating sorting table before being sent to an open- top barrel fermenter. After 1 day of cold maceration, the alcoholic fermentation was started and occurred around 05 degrees F. Punchdowns were done by hand every day during the fermentation and, also during the warm post-maceration, that lasted 8 days. This wine was then pressed and sent to barrel where the malolactic fermentation occurred rapidly. After racking from malolactic fermentation, the wine returned to barrel to age for 20 months entirely in French oak Bordeaux barrel (66% new French oak,
34% neutral French oak barrel). No fining of the wine occurred. After the appropriate aging time elapsed, the wine was simply racked, sterile-filtered, and hand-bottled on the Estate.

WINEMAKING NOTES
K2 is a Bordeaux blend made from 21% grapes from Casanel Vineyards and 79% grapes from 2 Virginia vineyards. The blend consists of 52% Merlot, 27% Cabernet Franc, 15% Cabernet Sauvignon, 3% Carménère and 3% Petit Verdot. These different varietals were picked at different times to respect their respective ripeness time and were treated separately in tanks and in barrels until blending.

After hand-harvest and sorting in the vineyard, the grapes were gently transported in small lugs to the winery where they were destemmed, sorted again on a vibrating sorting table before to be sent in a stainless steel tank by gravity. After 2 to 4 days of cold maceration depending on the varietal, the alcoholic fermentation was started and occurred around 75 to 80 degrees F. Pump-overs were done every day during the fermentation and also during the short warm post-maceration, that lasted about 2 to 3 weeks (again depending on the varietal – Cabernet Sauvignon and Petit Verdot had both a longer post-maceration). The different wines were then pressed and sent to barrels where the malolactic (ML) fermentation occurred rapidly. After racking from ML, these wines returned to barrels to be aged for 21 months entirely in French oak Bordeaux barrels (30% new, 30% in 1-year old, 30% in 2-years old and 10% in 3-years old barrels). The final blending occurred at the end of February 2017. After a small fining, the wine was racked, filtered and bottled.
