ABOUT ECO TERRENO
Great wines are not just produced, rather they are carefully cultivated. At Eco Terreno our wine growing experience along with a healthy respect for the land help us cultivate grapes that are of the utmost expressions of the vineyard. In 1980, after an extensive search, Founder and Winemaker Mark Lyon found a 122-acre (93 acres planted to vines) vineyard in Alexander Valley near Cloverdale. Today the Lyon and Cisne Vineyards, both 100% Demeter and CCOF Organic Certified, are under the care of Daphne Amory, an expert in biodynamic viticulture.
Harvest Notes
The 2016 vintage started early and warm but ended up beautifully for Eco Terreno, especially for our later ripening red grapes. As always cool fog in the morning clearing to sunny skies by early afternoon with temperatures soaring up into the high 90°s F and the quickly cooling off following sunset. Temperature swings of up to 40° F, which is preferable for Cabernet Sauvignon, Cabernet Franc and Merlot allowed for greater depth of flavor.
Tasting Notes
Our 2016 Cabernet Sauvignon has an opaque purple color, with a bright purple rim. Cassis, black cherry, brambles, warm baking spices and espresso fill an effusively fragrant nose. The flavors are similar with ripe black cherry and dark chocolate and cabernet spice impressions, and the wine is lush fruit-forward yet balanced. The finish is lingering even and silken, with hints of structure that will aid in aging.
