Red Wine by Brassfield from North Coast, California. This three-and-a-half acre block of Pinot Noir was planted on the valley floor, chosen for being one of the coldest spots on High Serenity Ranch for optimum flavor and color development, better acid retention and gravelly, alluvium soils for the best drainage. The longer, cooler growing season of 2005 ripened the fruit later than typical vintages, and because of the small crop, the grapes produced intense fruit concentration, excellent extraction and good acidity.
