Each lot was taken from a specific vineyard block, grown according to our highest standards. As a result, these varied blocks contributed their unique characteristics to the final blend’s complexity. Winemaking & Cellar Information Grapes from the individual sites were hand-harvested into half-ton bins, then quickly transported to the nearby winery. After a gentle destemming, the resulting “must” was transferred into either 5-ton open-top tanks or 1 ½ ton fermentors. Following a 36-hour cold soak, the fermentors were inoculated with a natural wine yeast and punched down according to the rate of fermentation. When dry, the “marc” was transferred to our small lot basket press to ensure gentle handling during this critical stage. Following a 24-hour settling, the young wine was transferred to 100% French oak, 30% new, where it remained until the September 2004 bottling. Analytical Information Alcohol:14.2% T.A.:6.68 g/L pH:3.61 Brix at Harvest:24.6 Tasting Notes Crimson-tinted garnet color. Striking aromas of strawberry and blueberry with rose petal floral aspects. Flavors are perfectly balanced and ripe. Fantastic weight on the palate, with supple middle fruitiness and a chewy, crisp aftertaste to hold all the elements together. For drinking now through 2010. <LI>SKU: 1159 Other products in the category <A HREF="http://store.tolosawinery.com/Category9" TITLE="Library Wines">Library Wines</A>: <LI><A HREF=http://store.tolosawinery.com/Product78 TITLE="Pinot Noir Vertical 4-pack ">Pinot Noir Vertical 4-pack </A> -- 1999-2002 Pinot Noir Vertical 4-pack <LI><A HREF=http://store.tolosawinery.com/Product80 TITLE="Syrah Vertical 4-pack ">Syrah Vertical 4-pack </A> -- 1999-2002 Syrah Vertical 4-pack <LI><A HREF=http://store.tolosawinery.com/Product79 TITLE="Chardonnay Vertical 4-pack ">Chardonnay Vertical 4-pack </A> -- 2001-2004 Chardonnay Vertical 4-pack <LI><A HREF=http://store.tolosawinery.com/Product74 TITLE="2001 Tolosa Pinot Noir">2001 Tolosa Pinot Noir</A> -- Aromatic notes of rose petal and black fruit leap out of the glass. <LI><A HREF=http://store.tolosawinery.com/Product73 TITLE="2002 Tolosa Pinot Noir">2002 Tolosa Pinot Noir</A> -- Brooding, floral, raspberry and cherry aroma with a hint of mocha. <LI><A HREF=http://store.tolosawinery.com/Product76 TITLE="2001 Tolosa Syrah">2001 Tolosa Syrah</A> -- Nice density of color, with aromas of spice, white pepper, violet and aged has given it a good texture. <LI><A HREF=http://store.tolosawinery.com/Product53 TITLE="2004 Tolosa Pinot Noir 750ml">2004 Tolosa Pinot Noir 750ml</A> -- Quintessential cool-climate Pinot Noir, with crushed rose petal, dried cherry and orange zest aromatics. <LI><A HREF=http://store.tolosawinery.com/Product21 TITLE="2003 Tolosa Syrah">2003 Tolosa Syrah</A> -- 92 points, Wine Enthusiast & Gold Medal in SF Chronicle 2007 <LI><A HREF=http://store.tolosawinery.com/Product5 TITLE="2003 Tolosa Chardonnay">2003 Tolosa Chardonnay</A> -- 92 points, Editors Choice in Wine Enthusiast Top 100 in 2005! <LI><A HREF=http://store.tolosawinery.com/Product3 TITLE="2004 Tolosa Chardonnay">2004 Tolosa Chardonnay</A> -- 91 Points, Wine Enthusiast <A HREF="http://store.tolosawinery.com" TITLE="Tolosa Winery Products">Tolosa Winery Products</A> <A HREF="http://www.tolosawinery.com">Tolosa Winery</A> Tolosa Winery <A HREF="http://www.nexternal.com" TITLE="ecommerce software">ecommerce software</A> powered by Nexternal
