Pinot Noir Anderson Valley - Greenwood Ridge, Father John W. - 2017

On-call time: 25 years
Style of wine: Vin de grand terroir
Alcohol degree: 12.5%

From a great terroir, cultivated at an altitude of 500m and planted with Burgundian clones, this superb Pinot develops a very beautiful nose of liquorice, serious and deep, with black fruits. The attack is marked by the terroir, with a bright fruit. The balance is that of a great wine, with a marked structure and strong potential. Devastated by fires in 2018, the vines were uprooted. It is therefore a collector’s item!

Technique

Viticulture

Vines planted at an altitude of 500 metres, 8 km from the sea, 95% Burgundy clone, 5% Swiss Wadenswill clone, 20 year old plants, sandy soil.

Oenology

After manual harvesting, the grapes are macerated at low temperature and then pumped over at a temperature limited to 25°. They are vatted with 60% whole bunches. The wine is then aged for 11 months on the lees in French oak barrels of various origins with only 10% new wood. A single racking is carried out before bottling, which takes place without fining or filtration.
