ARGER-MARTUCCI 2004 PINOT NOIR

The grapes were harvested on September 26 at 24.6 brix with an excellent acid level. This Pinot has more depth than the 2003 pinot from the same vineyard. Once harvested, the grapes were whole-berry, cold macerated for 48 hours, then fermented on the skins for 19 days, giving an intense extract of Pinot Noir. Once fermented, the wine was aged in 100% French Nevers Oak for 16 months. The color is darker than the 2003, but still true to Pinot Noir crimson, not black. The bouquet is one of bright black cherry with hints of black truffle and nutmeg. The palate is lush and soft, the way Pinot Noir should be. The flavors of black cherry follow through on the palate with a hint of dried plums. 610 cases produced.
