Gundlach Bundschu Wines

2007 Gundlach Bundschu Estate Vineyard Sonoma Coast Pinot Noir

750ml wine bottle

Vineyard & Winemaking: 
Ten individual vineyard blocks were sustainably farmed and vinified in 14 separate lots to craft the 2007 Estate Pinot Noir. Heritage vines up to forty years old make up a third of the blend and give this red wine a silky, elegant structure and delicate aromatics. Seven-year-old Dijon and Pommard clones contribute the intense fruit and spice. Night harvested by hand, cold-soaked for three to five days and aged 12 months in 100% French oak barrels, 40% new. 
 
Wine Tasting Notes: 
The 2007 growing season gave Gundlach Bundschu nearly perfect, mild climatic conditions, resulting in low yields and wines of excellent concentration. Layered aromas redolent of fresh strawberry and dried rose petal, with a touch of sandalwood. Silky palate of red and blue berries, white pepper and a touch of licorice are wrapped in round tannins and linger on a long lively finish.
