Located east of San Francisco Bay, the Lodi area enjoys a reputation for producing grapes rich in varietal character with great flavors. Many Old Vine Vineyards are located in this region and the well-drained soil and warm summer climate, moderated by cooling bay breezes blowing inform the Sacramento River delta make the area ideally suited to port varieties. This wine is produced from some of the classic Portuguese varietals. Touriga (36%) is rated the best variety for port. It has aromas of blackberries, elderberries and aloes when young. Tinto Cao (1%) is a low yielding, temperamental variety that is generally used for blending. Trousseau (26%) is a small berried, small-sized grape cluster that is medium yielding and is an important grape variety in the production of port. In the production of port the fermentation is stopped at a specific sugar and alcohol combination using high quality grape brandy. The various wines were then clarified and racked to barrel. Barrel aged wine of different ages were blended to create the final blend; which was then given an additional 12 months of barrel age in small French oak barrels. 21% is from 1997, 26% from 1998, 36% from 1999, 16% from 2000 and 1% from 2001. The wine was aged for approximately 40 months in small oak barrels. Prior to bottling the wine is gently filtered. Deep in ruby color with rich fruit aromas, this wine has a rich, luscious mouth feel and soft elegant tannins. The fruit concentration balances well with the alcohol and the grape acidity to yield an appealing, elegant wine, brought to the palate, with great depth and concentration. Having participated in many wine dinners, and observing the pour marriage of the Clone 6 Cabernet Sauvignon with Chocolate-based desserts, we decided to create our port especially for Bell wine dinners. With a hint of sweetness to satisfy the sweet tooth in everyone, this wine is a wonderful accompaniment to many desserts and will continue to mature gracefully for many years.
