Growing Conditions
The 2011 Vintage was challenging for vintners with rains
coming at inconvenient times and a growing season that yielded
one of the smallest crops in years.
Winemaking
The Revelation was fermented on skins to about 7° brix, at which
time brandy is added to arrest fermentation and fortify the wine.
The wine is then pressed to barrel and aged there for 34 months
while the wine and the brandy marry. The prolonged barrel aging
promotes the integration of the wine and the particularly soft and
smooth palate
