Purchase Clos Pepe Estate 2005 Pinot Noir

A wine that clearly represents one of the best vintages ever for Santa Rita Hills Pinot Noir. Blended from three picks over 6 weeks, the wine shows the acid and spice from an early pick (25%), moderate alcohol and great richness from a moderate-ripeness pick (50%), and high-toned fruit and good ‘baby fat’ from a late pick (25%). The 2005 CPE Pinot Noir shows deep garnet/purple color, has a heady aroma of blackberry, blueberry, strawberry and black cherry, and is harmonious in the mouth, showing a great balance of ripe fruit, good grip and surprising acidity. Over the next five years the mid-palate of the wine will flesh out with minerals and complexity, but for now it is a wine of pure pleasure and food-friendliness. Blend of 115, 777 and 667 Clones from hillside plantings. 14.7% alcohol and 1/3 new French oak barrels for 11 months.
