Deloach California Heritage Pinot Noir

In the Vineyard: As leaders in the world of Pinot Noir we take special pride in the wines that we produce. Believing that fine wine is grown in the vineyard we crafted this Pinot Noir using fruit carefully selected from premium vineyards throughout northern and central California. This effort helps us achieve the unique balance of delicate Pinot characteristics and the more intense fruit flavors found in the different terroirs that comprise our California Pinot Noir. Conversations with the Winemaker: At DeLoach Vineyards we strive to produce distinctive wines that spotlight unique terroirs in a socially and environmentally responsible way practicing sustainable viticulture and utilizing minimally intrusive winemaking techniques. The fruit for this Pinot Noir is primarily from the Delta region of California and is fermented in closed-top fermenters. A small portion is aged in seasoned barrels to impart slight oak characteristics to the wine but most is kept in stainless steel
