Description:
The fruit for this pinot was harvested under ideal conditions on September 27. A long moderate fall allowed these grapes to reach optimum maturity. The grapes were lightly destemmed and fermented in small open top containers with hand punch downs twice daily. Following a gentle pressing, after 18 days skin contact, the wine was allowed to age in French oak until bottling April 2002. The wine has rich cherry and berry aromas, with cocoa, herbs and forest mushroom flavors. The finish is long and sultry, always inviting another sip. The wine is an excellent companion to herb butter sautéed chicken and oily grilled fishes, such as salmon or tuna.
