Taste

The pinnacle wine for Terlato Vineyards, EPISODE stands shoulder to shoulder with the very best Bordeaux blends in the world. The 2007 is an elegant blend of Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Petit Verdot and Cabernet Franc. Deep ruby color with an intense core. Bright concentrated fruit with explosive aromas of blackberry and vanilla and undertones of anise. Intense middle and well-balanced acid, fruit and structure that builds through an intense finish. EPISODE is crafted in limited quantities, a mere 17 barrels in 2007, heralded as the best vintage of the decade.
