La Josefina Pinot Noir Russian River
Our 2006 La Josefina Pinot Noir, our fourth vintage, delivers the
character of the vineyard with great definition and focus. These
vines, located on a southeast-facing hillside above the Russian
River, provide fruit with great richness and a smoky, gamey complexity
reminiscent of old-world wines. In order to maximize the character
of this unique wine, we included 25% whole clusters in the fermentation,
and encouraged native yeast fermentation. The wine was aged in French
oak barrels for ten months, and bottled without fining or filtration.
