title: Andrew Will 2008 Ciel du Cheval Vineyard Red (Red Mountain)
description: Winemaker Chris Camarda is antiformulaic; his wines in 2008 feature radically different blends from the 2007s. This is a third each Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon, and Cab Franc. It reflects the vineyard's penchant for tart berry fruit set atop astringent, mineral-driven tannins. It's tight and dense, with vertical power. Flavors roll gracefully into a medium-length finish.
variety: Bordeaux-style Red Blend
designation: Ciel du Cheval Vineyard
