It produces just two wines, both from the classic Bordeaux blend – the flagship estate wine and the second wine, Asterisk.The estate encompasses 5ha (13 acres) of land that was originally planted to vine in 1997. This land reaches as much as 990 feet (300m) above sea level in the foothills of the Mayacama mountain range. Here, well-drained volcanic rock and sandy loam soils dominate. This, combined with cool ocean breezes, descending fog and plentiful amounts of sunshine during the growing season, results in an ideal terroir for the Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Cabernet Franc and Petit Verdot that is planted here.Grapes are hand-picked inthe vineyard, and upon arrival in the winery are left to soak for up to seven days prior to fermentation. Both oak barrels and tanks are sourced for fermentation with extended maceration lasting from 45 to 60 days, depending on the vintage. \u003cbr\u003e","published_at":"2023-01-10T16:02:30-05:00","created_at":"2023-01-05T04:11:31-05:00","vendor":"CaskCartel.com","type":"Wine","tags":["Country_United States","MK0501","Other_Wine","Producer_Sloan","Region_Napa Valley","Source_Bestofwines1222","Type_Red Wine","varietal_cabernet sauvignon","Varietal_Merlot"],"price":69999,"price_min":69999,"price_max":69999,"available":true,"price_varies":false,"compare_at_price":null,"compare_at_price_min":0,"compare_at_price_max":0,"compare_at_price_varies":false,"variants":[{"id":42665438445706,"title":"Default Title","option1":"Default Title","option2":null,"option3":null,"sku":"","requires_shipping":true,"taxable":false,"featured_image":null,"available":true,"name":"2017 | Sloan | Asterisk","public_title":null,"options":["Default Title"],"price":69999,"weight":12247,"compare_at_price":null,"inventory_management":"shopify","barcode":"","requires_selling_plan":false,"selling_plan_allocations":[],"quantity_rule":{"min":1,"max":null,"increment":1}}],"images":["\/\/caskcartel.com\/cdn\/shop\/products\/20_0c7bd864-b56d-4a74-b497-7d41d0248a57.png?v=1672910063"],"featured_image":"\/\/caskcartel.com\/cdn\/shop\/products\/20_0c7bd864-b56d-4a74-b497-7d41d0248a57.png?v=1672910063","options":["Title"],"media":[{"alt":"2017 | Sloan | Asterisk at CaskCartel.com","id":23911816495242,"position":1,"preview_image":{"aspect_ratio":0.485,"height":1213,"width":588,"src":"\/\/caskcartel.com\/cdn\/shop\/products\/20_0c7bd864-b56d-4a74-b497-7d41d0248a57.png?v=1672910063"},"aspect_ratio":0.485,"height":1213,"media_type":"image","src":"\/\/caskcartel.com\/cdn\/shop\/products\/20_0c7bd864-b56d-4a74-b497-7d41d0248a57.png?v=1672910063","width":588}],"requires_selling_plan":false,"selling_plan_groups":[],"content":"\u003ch2\u003eRed Wine: 2017 | Sloan | Asterisk\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe 2017 Asterisk has a medium to deep garnet-purple color and expressive notes of baked plums, blackberry compote and red currant jelly with hints of potpourri, oolong tea, tapenade and truffles. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eOrder from the Largest \u0026amp; Most Trusted Premium Spirits Marketplace! \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFeatured in\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eROLLING STONE\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMEN'S JOURNAL\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUS WEEKLY\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eNOTICE:\u003c\/strong\u003e Many other small liquor store sites may end up cancelling your order due to the high demand, unavailability or inaccurate inventory counts.  We have partnerships consisting of a large network of licensed retailers from within the United States, Europe and across the world ensuring orders are fulfilled.   \u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eProducer:\u003c\/b\u003e Sloan\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRatings: \u003cspan style=\"color: #ff2a00;\"\u003eWA\u003c\/span\u003e | 91  \u003cspan color=\"#ff2a00\" style=\"color: #ff2a00;\"\u003eWS\u003c\/span\u003e | 94\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eVintage: \u003c\/b\u003e2017\u003cb\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 750ml\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eVarietal:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCountry\/Region:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e United States, Napa Valley\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c!-- split --\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eDetailed Description\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe 2017 Asterisk has a medium to deep garnet-purple color and expressive notes of baked plums, blackberry compote and red currant jelly with hints of potpourri, oolong tea, tapenade and truffles.
