WINE DESCRIPTION
Red Hook Pier Forty-One Red is a Bordeaux-style blend hailing from the North Fork of Long Island AVA located within New York state. The wine is typically a majority of Cabernet Franc with a touch of Merlot and Cabernet Sauvignon, sourced from a number of different vineyards. After harvesting, the grapes are destemmed and each variety is fermented separately in temperature-controlled stainless steel vats. Finally, the wine is aged for around 18 months in French oak barrels, before the wines are blended and bottled.
NOTES FROM VINOVOSS SOMMELIER
Red Hook Pier Forty-One Red exhibits a deep ruby color, enticing the senses with its aromas of ripe blackberries, cherries, and a hint of vanilla.On the palate, this wine has a relatively lean texture with a medium body, that is framed by chalky tannins. There is a firm core of acidity that brings freshness and energy to the wine. The fresh fruit flavors are well-defined, showcasing notes of blackcurrants, plums, and a touch of herbaceousness. There is a subtle spiciness that adds depth to the wine, softening the slightly herbal finish.
