2005 Harvest at Pisoni Vineyards = 5Attababys!

 

Elias and Gary harvesting!

It's about 6:30 am when we arrive,

Mark Pisoni, Elias and his crew have been

harvesting since about 4:00 am,

that's why they are wearing the Miner's Headlights.

 

2005 Harvest at Pisoni Vineyards = 5Attababys!

 

A pro at work, notice the Miner's Headlight.

This is the most beautiful vineyard...

and the best harvest I have ever seen!

Enjoy with a glass of great Pinot Noir,

Pisoni?, yeah!

drink it, if ya' got it...

Gary describing the vintage!

The Pisoni Pisoni Estate Pinot Noir is made

from the "own rooted" Elias Block.

The complex flavors are why they take the risk.

You can taste it in the fruit and in the finished wine.

Is it worth the risk?

It's worth it!

Gary and Elias harvesting and tasting the Elias Block!

Wow!

The sun has come up and we can see how

beautiful the vineyard is.

Wait until you see the fruit!

 

This the best tasting fruit I have ever tasted!

Great wine is made in the vineyard!

This wine will make itself...

This will be an incredible vintage

and an incredible wine!

I just tasted the 2004 Pisoni Pisoni Estate

and it is already better than previous years...

This 2005 vintage is even better!

I can't wait...
