2008 La Cuillere "Member's Reserve" Pinot Noir

2008 

Spring was much colder and wetter than usual from March to June. The first half of July brought above average temperatures. The fruit set was diminished by the cool spring, leaving smaller overall clusters. The second half of July and August saw cooler and wetter weather again, but September and October turned drier and warmer with beautiful days, allowing the grapes to fully mature. Harvest was hand-picked between October 11th and 24th.
