Winemaker Notes
Anderson’s Conn Valley Vineyards much loved proprietary red wine “Right Bank.” Aged 18 months in 40% new french oak. A fragrant nose of plums, cherries, dried herbs, dried flowers, tobacco and baking spices. It’s full-bodied with fine tannins and vivid acidity. Creamy and velvety with plenty of dark fruit, flowers and spice. Ripe black cherry and currant fruit as well as notes of truffly earth, tobacco, leather, and cedar pencil. More medium-bodied, nicely textured, and balanced, this dark, herbal, interesting, and complex red will keep for a decade.
Blend – 58% Cabernet Franc and 42% Merlot

About Anderson’s
Since 1983 we have been family owned and operated by the Anderson’s, and since our first release in 1987, Anderson’s Conn Valley Vineyards has been dedicated to producing world-class wines. After graduating from University of Pacific in Stockton, CA with a degree in Geology Todd went to work for a small geophysical firm that was on the cutting edge of technology for seismic oil and gas exploration. Todd soon realized the corporate world was not for him. Although he loved the industry he was in, he continually had thoughts of the outdoors and getting back in touch with the soil. These thoughts, along with the mention from his parents of starting a “small vineyard”, are what led to the creation of Anderson’s Conn Valley Vineyards.
