2016 CABERNET SAUVIGNON RELEASE! – June 5, 2020

Nottely Wine 2016 Limited Release Cabernet Sauvignon

Tomorrow June 5, 2020!  This is the limited release of 144 bottles.  2016 was a fantastic vintage, the grapes we harvested, destemmed/crushed and fermented without the addition of sulfites.  Fermentation was at 70F, and the first 50% of fermentation was by native yeast, then cultured yeast was added to make sure we reached a dry wine.  The young wine was racked 3 times by January 2017, then racked into French Oak Barrels, there it remained until December 2018,   racked into a stainless tank and allowed to marry until July 2019.  It was then bottled (un-filtered, un-finned) and has been aging in the cellar ever since.  We are sharing some of this with you now, and may at a future date release another limited number of bottles.

Cheers,

Steve

COVID-19 Update

UPDATE May 29, 2020: We are now open normal hours (Friday and Saturdays from noon to pm). Currently we are selling bottles for on-site consumption, and take away. Each day we will offer select wines for sale by the glass. The NC governor has a long list of requirements that we are working to meet for wine tastings. Hopefully we will begin tastings by appointment in the next few days. Thanks for your understanding during these trying times.

Cheers,

Steve
