Signorello Pinot Noir Hyde Vineyard 2004

Carneros, Napa Valley, California, United StatesSuper fresh style here. Rich peppery sour cherry flavours reflect the 72-hour cold maceration in open-top tanks before fermentation on native yeasts. Signorello practices traditional Burgundian techniques. The wine is not filtered or fined. This is rich full-bodied pinot with a plummy spicy black cherry finish. Serious pinot that will easily age five years or more. Certainly one of the best we've tasted from Carneros.Tasted: 21 July 2006Tasted by: Anthony Gismondi and Stuart TobePrices:
