BENANDANTS 2014 Charbono
Calistoga
100% Shypoke Vineyard Charbono
The Charbono has been vinified with the “appassimento” method, by drying the grapes on racks in a dark and well ventilated environment for 42 days, after which they have been crushed and fermented in barrels and bins, with daily punchdowns. After pressing, the wine spent 16 months in French barrels, 50% new.
“The 2014 Benandants Charbono Shypoke Vineyard is a bold, hearty red. Not at all shy, the 2014 offers plenty of depth in its racy, plump red berry fruit, along with savory, earthy bass notes.”
