Winemaking 品酒小記:

不在葡萄進行冷泡之前壓碎果實，這樣讓葡萄破碎程度降到最低的作法可以大大提升葡萄酒的單寧。整串的果實冷藏於華氏40度的低溫中去增加汁液的色澤。經過3~5天，慢慢提升溫度並注入酵母菌來進行發酵。在發酵達到最高峰時，每天打氣翻轉2~3次來做去皮的動作，然後再低溫保存來防止過多的單寧。當色澤跟口感達到完美的狀態，放入一種空氣包來慢慢壓出葡萄酒(自流酒)，將自流酒跟葡萄皮再進行壓榨的榨汁酒(丹寧跟紅色素高，但酒精濃度低)混和後形成更均衡及豐富的葡萄酒，再放入法國及匈牙利的橡木桶中培養至少3個月。在酒桶中進行熟成的過程，去掉酒渣及不定時地搖晃翻攪葡萄酒，使之釋放出蛋白質，讓酒體更加飽滿。

此酒有良好細膩的單寧口感結合橡木桶的香氣，尾韻帶點輕微的酸度，具有保存陳年潛力。

Awards and Acclaim:

2006 Vintage

●Five Stars and Wine By the Glass from Restaurant Wine:

 "Exceptional quality and value. Intensely flavored and full bodied, this is a relativesly powerful Pinot Noir, with plum, cedar, blackberry, and spicy oak aromas/flavors, and a long finish. "

●89 Points and One Puff from Connoisseurs Guide to California Wine:

"Good inexpensive Pinot has been and is a rare commodity, yet this month's survey reveals several outstanding examples. Few, however, hit the good-value mark quite so ringingly as dowes this well-crafted effort from Sebastiani, and not many offerings at twice the price are as defined and as deeply fruited. It may want for a bit more complexity, but its insistent impressions of sweet cherries and its supple, slightly velvety feel are clearly the stuff of unqualified varietal success. GOOD VALUE"
