The balance was fermented in 75 gallon stainless steel barrels, our first vintage using these types of barrels. Lees were stirred in all the barrels weekly to retain freshness and build mid-palate texture. The blend was aged 6 months in barrel. Twenty-five percent of the blend completed malolatic fermentation. The blend is estate grown and bottled.<p><b>Analysis: </b>Alcohol, 14.5 percent; titratable acidity, 5.42g per L; pH, 3.63; residual sugar, dry</p> <p><b>Tasting Notes:</b> Ripe apple and orange blossom aromas with vanilla and oak in the background. Stone and mineral aromas echo on the palate. Balanced acidity with a silky mid-palate lead to a zesty finish that leaves you wanting another sip. </p> </blockquote> </P> <P> <LI>SKU: 31005 </P> <BR clear=left><BR><P><A HREF="http://store.silveradovineyards.com" TITLE="Silverado Vineyards Pruducts">Silverado Vineyards Pruducts</A></P> <BR clear=left><BR><BR><BR><BR> <BR><A HREF="http://www.silveradovineyards.com">silverado vineyards</A> <BR>Silverado Vineyards <A HREF="http://www.nexternal.com" TITLE="shopping cart">shopping cart</A> powered by Nexternal
