2004 RED WINERY ROAD
Estate Bordeaux Blend
This wine pays tribute to the Young’s contribution to
the local history by naming a Robert Young Estate wine
after Red Winery Road that bisects our vineyards.
In 2004, the opportunity to produce a Red Winery Road
wine presented itself. The crop that year was very small
giving extra concentration of fruit flavors in all
Robert Young Vineyards grapes. These conditions meant
that just a little bit of our small plantings of
Bordeaux grape varietals, like Petit Verdot and Malbec,
would make a more interesting and noticeable
contribution to a wine blend of our larger vineyard
sections of Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot and Cabernet
Franc. The result of the blend was a distinctive wine
with a wide variety of complimentary and rich flavors.
The 2004 Red Winery Road blend contains all the special
sections of Bordelaise the grapes in our vineyards and
was made especially for our Scion Wine Club.
The result of this blend is a distinctive wine with a
wide variety of rich and complementary flavors. Only 340
cases of this new wine were made.
This wine has not been sent out for review.
