About Fogarty<BR>Few wine regions on earth can match Santa Cruz Mountains’<BR>climates, soils and vertigo-inspiring views. Set high in<BR>the mountains overlooking California’s Silicon Valley, the<BR>Thomas Fogarty winery has been making single-vineyard Pinot<BR>Noir, Chardonnay, Merlot and Cabernet from the SCM<BR>appellation since 1981. Fogarty’s two estates are divided<BR>into micro-vineyards, ranging from .25 to 5.25 acres, based<BR>on soil and topography. All are maritime (12-18 miles to<BR>Pacific), cool-climate (Regions I and II), high-elevation<BR>(1600-2300 feet), low yielding (1-3 tons per acre) and<BR>mountainous. The winery was founded by Dr. Thomas Fogarty,<BR>a Stanford cardiovascular surgeon and world-renowned<BR>inventor.<BR><BR>Vintage<BR>2006 featured one of the longest growing seasons in recent memory. Fantastic weather during bloom left us with a real crop on the vines, something quite different than 2005. The<BR>longer cool growing season was ideal for producing lovely<BR>aromatics and silky textures, real hallmarks for us in<BR>2006. The vintage yielded wines that, while pure and<BR>translucent, were slightly off the mark for our single-site<BR>Pinot Noir program. As a result, our Santa Cruz Mountain<BR>bottling was the fortunate beneficiary of our decision to<BR>include all of block and vineyard designated wines! <BR><BR>Vineyards<BR>Blending the Skyline Red is always challenging, but it is highly exciting and allows us quite a different approach to winemaking than with any of our other wines. We are not limited by appellation or varietal requirements and are free to blend liberally. This freedom allows us to focus solely on making the most delicious and flavorful wine we can at an reasonable price. To that end we blended Cabernet Sauvignon from Paso Robles and the Santa Cruz Mountains, Merlot from Clements Hills and the Santa Cruz Mountains, Cabernet Franc from Bennett Valley and Clements Hills with a small dash of Petit Verdot. <BR><BR>Winemaking<BR>Our 2006 Skyline Red was aged for 16 months in American and French oak barrels with three to four rackings a year. The ’06 vintage yielded fruit forward wines with supple tannins and medium weight, characteristics that are right in the wheelhouse for our Skyline Red.<BR><BR>Tasting Notes<BR>The 2006 Skyline features more Santa Cruz Mountain fruit than past versions, and also some excellent Cabernet Sauvignon from Paso Robles. Easily our best Skyline Red to date, the ’06 vintage presented us with fabulous raw material for crafting a serious but drinkable wine at an awesome price. Classic notes of blackberry, tobacco and spice dominate the nose and are accented by more red fruits and hints of vanilla and spice on the palate. The Skyline Red is always fashioned to be eminently drinkable on release with medium body and lush tannins. <BR></P>
