Production Notes

The fruit for our 2016 Coach Gun was handpicked, sorted, and fermented naturally, then aged for 24 months in 50% new French oak barrels. Our winemaking team refined the blend for the first year of aging, and the final wine was determined just months before bottling. The final blend is 70% Cabernet Sauvignon, 15% Malbec and 15% Petit Verdot.
