La Rochelle 2004 Pinot Noir, Garys'  Vineyard

Vineyard Notes:
La Rochelle is a small, artisanal winery focused exclusively on the making of hand-crafted, world-class Pinot Noir from only the finest vineyard sites in California and Oregon.

At La Rochelle, living by that creed means craftsmanship at every step. In the vineyard, small blocks of only the best quality grapes are selected. In the cellar, patient matching of fermentations, cooperage, and aging allow the grapes' true nature to shine. Traditional hand-crafting. Innovative techniques. Limited production. With this artistic pedigree, the wines of La Rochelle are predestined for greatness…

Winemaker Tasting Notes:
This wine shows its birthplace in the huge draughts of black cherry, raspberry, & pomegranate fruit that explode from the glass. As the wine opens, more subtle notes of forest floor & dried orange peel are found. Serving as a foundation to the fruit is a generous complex of caramel and brown sugar notes derived from the use of 100% new French oak. Limited Supply Available.
