'08 Pinot Noir Two Pisces Vineyard Sonoma Coast

Winemaking

The fruit was handpicked from Pommard 5 and Dijon 115 blocks on September 10.

Fermented with native yeasts after a five day cold soak.

Aged for eleven months in a neutral French oak barrel.

Bottled on August 8, 2009.

Unfined and unfiltered. Only 25 cases produced.

(We experimentally/partially used Zork as a closure.)

Deep reddish purple in color. With aromas of cranberry and cherry fruits. A touch of floral/spice.

Good acid and concentration. Bright fruits. A very balanced wine.

Decent food wine at 13.2% alcohol.
