Winemaker Notes
This Pinot Noir was harvested from vineyards in the coolest region of the Napa Valley -Carneros. The two clones, Martini and 115, were harvested at the same time and cofermented whole berry in an open-topped stainless-steel fermentation tank with a combination of daily pumpovers and punchdowns and pressed just before dryness. It was barrel-aged sur-lie for seven months before being racked and put back to barrel for the remaining four months of aging.
