Named by the daughter of Jon Pey, Founder of TEXTBOOK “Page-Turner” reflects the eagerness we feel each time we taste it. It beckons another sip.
-
Grape clusters were field-sorted, hand-harvested, hand-sorted at the winery. Fruit was de-stemmed and cold soaked for two days.
-
After 31-33 days on their skins, we gently pressed into barrels where the lots completed malolactic fermentation over the winter.
-
Highest quality French Oak cooperages: Nadalié and Giraud.
Our Vision
Given the unmatched quality of the Holmes Vineyard, making a Merlot-centric blend from Oakville became an essential for us. Cabernet Sauvignon gives structure to the Merlot’s plush nature while allowing the fruit to be in the spotlight. Field sorting and hand-harvesting protected the integrity of the fruit for a wine.
