Knapp wine question

[glenora]

Sorry for the delay in responding--we are in the midst of harvest and consequently spending more time in the vineyards and on the press deck than at the desk.

Knapp 2002 Merlot is a blend of Finger Lakes (Knapp Vineyards) and Long Island (Martha Clara Vineyards) merlot. The Knapp portion was the first harvest of Merlot at Knapp. As we like to produce at least a minimum of 250 cases of any wine, we purchased merlot from Long Island to supplement the quantity needed. The actual proportions are 63% Knapp (Finger Lakes) with the balance being from the Long Island.

Glad to learn you are enjoying it--I will share that news with Steve our winemaker, and the vineyard team.
