Alloro's Church Block Pinot noir 07 $15 price reduction from $54.95
The 2007 vintage was more challenging due to a cool fall with sun breaks and rainy periods that tested the nerves of the most experienced vintners. Experienced wine making paid off. Good vineyard management including pulling leaves to allow air and sunlight in the canopy, managing crop loads, and good picking decisions that allowed the fruit to reach full maturity made for a very successful vintage.
Church Block denotes our south west pomard block directly across the canyon from a pioneer church complete with church bells that rings every Sunday morning at 10:30. Ripe strawberries, raspberry and cherry with hints of smoke and spice. Balanced acidity, firm structure and fine tannins lead to a long elegant finish. Production 245 Cases. - the winery
