| Description: | Case Price = $22.99 per bottle (add 12+ quantity to your basket). Notes from the Winemaker:. Blue Rock owner/winemaker Kenny Kahn realized the need for an affordable, balanced and food friendly Cabernet based wine that has real personality and soul yet without the heaviness associated with Califiornia Cabernet. The 2013 Baby Blue is an artistic blend of the 5 Bordeaux varietals plus a touch of Syrah. The objective of the blend is to deliver a wine that is immediately delicious and accessible and with velvety tannins, fine aromatics, balance and length. 2013 is likely the finest Baby Blue to date, a blend of 44 % Merlot, 35% Cabernet Sauvignon, 6% Malbec, 6% Syrah, 5% Petit Verdot, and 4% Cabernet Franc. The wine spent 12 months in French Oak and has been bottled unfined. Winemaker's Notes: March 20, 2015. Consumers are surprised by the depth, elegance and balance of Baby Blue, especially in light of the reasonable price. The 2013, from another great year in Northern California, is full of dark black fruits (blackberry, black cherry) and with a long finish. Our goal as winemakers is to make a unique wine that has soul, blance, lots of flavor, and yet without the heaviness that one often finds in California Cabernet. The addition of Merlot brings sweetness and silky tannins, the Cabernet Franc adds a complex aromatic while lifting the texture, and Petit Verdot and Syrah round out the palate with warm black fruit. Alcohol: 14.2%. Ph 3.53. Cases produced: 7380. |
