What importer Bowler Wine has to say about this wine...
The majority of the fruit for this bottling comes from George Besson's decades-old Pinot Noir, planted at the foot of the Santa Cruz Mountains. Two sites from the higher-elevation limestone soils of the Gabilan Range (Rodnick and Boer) were used to supplement the blend, providing darker fruit and structure to the elegant and floral Besson Pinot. The wine was fermented naturally with roughly one-third stem inclusion and matured for 10-months in neutral barrels and puncheons. Bottled unfined/unfiltered.
