Pedernales Cellars
|
|
Pedernales Cellars is truly a family affair, with David and Fredrik in their day-to-day roles at the winery while Larry and Jeanine continue to oversee the family vineyards. Meanwhile, Julie has drawn on her artistic experience to develop the labels, while David’s wife Heather not only has spent many of the past years helping in the vineyard, but has helped to provide everything from photography to guidance on the tasting room design. So when David’s and Fredrik’s respective children help out during harvest or in the winery, they are not only seventh generation Texans, but also the third generation directly involved with the wine industry.

The wine is well balanced with a fruit forward character and good acidity on the finish. It features a rich ruby red color and excellent body with hints of black berries, mineral, and leather capped by a silky finish and a subtle spice. Decanting recommended. This proprietary blend features all Texas fruit, and represents the cream-of-the-crop of 2007. The wine was aged for 15 months using all-new French and American oak barrels, and was bottled without filtration.
