Originally created in collaboration with Philippe Melka, this classic Old World style blend is produced by Long Shadows’ Director of Winemaking, Gilles Nicault. A selection of top Red Mountain Cabernet Sauvignon vineyards and a small amount of Stone Tree Vineyard Cabernet give Pirouette structure and ripe fruit character. Layered complexity builds with the addition of Red Mountain Merlot, bringing suppleness and texture. Petit Verdot from Dionysus Vineyard lends cassis, and finally, a small amount of Weinbau Vineyard Malbec contributes a dark, spicy note to the finished wine.
