CASTALIA 11 PN ROCHIOLI
Terry Bering is the cellarmaster for Rochioli Vineyards. When he isn't busting his hump helping out the Rochioli family produce fantastic wines, Terry works on his own Pinot Noir Project! Terry makes flavorful, aromatic, and wonderfully nuanced wines that do justice to his Rochioli vineyard source.In 2011 the crop yields were small, and the weather was cold. Many other producers produced the same yields and were greeted with diluted wines. But since Terry kept the yields small, those grape clusters were able to fully mature, and the resulting is a thing of beauty! The 2011 vintage has a PH of 3.55 (perfect). Full of dark fruit with a touch of cranberry on the finish, it is framed with a subtle tannin structure. All point to a wine that should age very well; only 300 cases were produced!
