The crucial time during ripening when the grapes' skin color deepens from an opaque green to a dark purple.
The origin of great wine is superb fruit. Veraison honors this philosophy with its Bordeaux-inspired Cabernet Sauvignon and a blend called Synchrony. The fruit for these wines is sourced from Stagecoach Vineyard.
