Description:
We lost a good percentage of this crop to frost, which ultimately changed our blend for our 2001 Cerise. The Martini clone, which contributed a firm backbone to our 2000, was severely frosted and plays a less dominant role. Fortunately our blocks of 777 and 667 clones came into production to add the overall blend. The Dijon clones from this vineyard appear to flesh out and provide another layer of complexity the martini alone could not. The wine still has the firmness this hillside vineyard exhibits and appears to have more layers earlier than the 2000. (115 cases produced)
Bing Cherry, talc, spice and light toast on the nose. The flavors mirror the nose and pick up a mineral and beet root quality. The tannins are firm but supple with good red fruits that are accentuated by the bright acidity. nish with plush dusty tannins.
