2006 Lone Madrone Old Hat
Lone Madrone

These grapes are farmed in the Adelaida region of West Paso Robles by David Osgood. David has been farming the dry farmed grapes and walnuts of our area for a long time, but this is different, this is his own vineyard. Limestone hills, head trained, dry farmed and organically farmed. This is only a young vineyard but it shows great “terroir” already. Year to year it is clearly Osgood! Open top fermented pressed prior to dryness into stainless for the natives to finish their work, then to mostly neutral barrels with a touch of new 4-year air-dried American wood to finish malo. Aged as a blend for 18 months on lees prior to bottling. Named for David’s ever-present oil soaked cowboy hat.

The 2006 Old Hat has a rich, complex bouquet of spice, vanilla, currants with a hints of white pepper cherry and tobacco. The velvety, balanced palate bursts with fruit & spice and finishes ever so long.
