2004 Robert Stemmler Ferguson Block Carneros Pinot Noir

is sourced from the oldest portion of the Donum Estate, planted in 1974 to Martini selection on St.
George rootstock. Yields are .9 tons/acre. Aged 11 months in 50% new oak.

This is a wine for fans of

the fruit profile. A decent, but not extraordinary wine.
