Halter Ranch Proprietary Red "ANCESTOR" Paso Robles 750mL
| Vintage: | 2020 |
|---|---|
| Description: | Ancestor is Halter Ranch's Bordeaux-style reserve blend, it is their flagship wine (think along the lines of Joseph Phelps' Insignia or Justin's Isosceles), and an homage to the heart and soul of their property, the Ancestor Tree. This tree is one of the largest coast live oaks on record, and is nestled amongst the vines of block eleven. A blend of 52% Cabernet Sauvignon, 28% Petit Verdot, and 20% Malbec, grapes were destemmed and fermented in closed top fermentors, with open pump-overs two to three times daily for an average of 16 days, then aged for 16 months in French oak barrels. The 2020 Ancestor features aromas of blueberries, cassis, raspberry, and a touch of mocha from the new French oak. The entry is soft, rich, and mouth-coating with flavors of red currant and olallieberry. The juicy midpalate segues into a structured finish with integrated tannins complimented by flavors of the French oak. |
