Description:
Edna Valley Vineyard Pinot Noir is a labor of love. We began by cold soaking the handpicked fruit for three days at about 55°F. The wine fermented in open-topped tanks until dryness. The cap was irrigated at intervals with a gentle pump over. Malolactic fermentation occurred in barrel, and we did the absolute least handling needed to bring the wine to bottle readiness, including minimal filtration. Only French oak barrels were used during the 10 months of maturation.
The 2003 Edna Valley Vineyard Pinot Noir shows rich black cherry and strawberry fruit, backed by caramel and vanilla notes, a full, viscous palate, soft tannins and a lingering, smoky finish.
