2009 Fleuron Cabernet Sauvignon
Fleuron wines are inspired by the distinctive vineyard sites from which the fruit is grown, and the California poppies that flourish across all of these properties in Sonoma, Napa and Lake Counties. The wines are made to enjoy with friends and family over delicious food and reminiscent stories. In every bottle, the distinct terroir from which the wine originated and the special bond among our winery family is present, so you may share these precious gifts with others.
With multi-generational experience from Château Latour, our winemaking team understands the methods behind crafting classic Bordeaux-style wines with intense fruit from hillside vineyards at peak ripeness. All of our grapes are gently hand sorted and go through extended maceration to extract optimal color and flavor.
The fruit for Fleuron's Tin Cross Vineyards Cabernet Sauvignon is grown at an elevation of more than 1,600 feet above the Alexander Valley. Aromas of sweet red and black berry, cherry, huckleberry, cassis and a touch of spice with cloves are followed by notes of licorice and dark chocolate. The wine is pure, well-balanced and classic in its proportions.
Fleuron's estate fruit is grown at Tin Cross Vineyards. Every vine on our estate is organically farmed and maintained to meet rigorous field specifications, a practice which yields healthier, more sustainable vines that positively contribute to the longevity of the land and the quality of the fruit produced.
