Grower\/Owner, Herb Quady is one the best growers in the region who is doing all the right things with the fantastic Oregon pink granite bedrock-based soils.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Quady site, which is farmed organically (certification in process) is relatively high in the hills above the Applegate River and is generally warmer than the Willamette Valley. However, at high elevation, the Quady site is cooler and wetter than the Rogue Valley AVA at lower elevation and to the east. His Mae's Vineyard block slopes southeast into the Applegate Valley in one of the prettiest spots we've seen in the state. Loamy\/clay and marine sediment overlay a large broken granite slab (yes granite!), which makes this a truly distinctive site to work with.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003chr\u003e\n\u003ch6\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBox Score\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h6\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eVineyard\u003c\/strong\u003e: Mae's Vineyard\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAlc:\u003c\/strong\u003e 13.6%\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eProduction:\u003c\/strong\u003e 100 cases\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"c7-product__specs\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"c7-product__spec\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003eVintage\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e2021\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"c7-product__spec\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003eVarietal\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003eCabernet Franc\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"c7-product__spec\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003eAppellation\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003eApplegate Valley\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cbr\u003eDark, ripe and packed with flavor, the Granit captures the power of the grape, which thrives at this southern Oregon site. Black-cherry fruit is laced with flavors of licorice and espresso, and the tannins have the green-coffee signature of Cabernet Franc.
