2009 Mira Cabernet Sauvignon Has Taken The Plunge

On Wednesday, February 20 we submerged four cases of our 2009 Mira Cabernet Sauvignon into the Charleston, South Carolina harbor to learn what effect, if any, the ocean and it’s elements will have on the aging process of the wine.

“Is there something just as impactful and interesting in aquaoir as there is about terroir? We are going to try and find out.” – Gustavo Gonzalez, Mira Winemaker.

We are humbled by the press re have received from our aquatic experiment and would invite you to learn more!
