In our Estate Vineyard at 1200 feet above sea level, thin topsoil littered with fractured shale and ancient maritime shellfish remnants overlays limestone rock. <br><br> <span style="font-weight: bold; color: #1E347C;">Winemaker Tasting Notes:</span><br> This fine Burgundian varietal thrives on the calcareous-shale soil and cool breezes of the Templeton Gap. Long hang-time to ripeness produces vibrant cherry flavors, fresh and bright depth and complexity to the mid-palate. <br><br> Small, intensely pigmented berries of fine Pinot Noir grapes grow here, in poor soils on steeply sloping hillsides. At this elevation, warm summer days are tempered by cooling Pacific breezes each afternoon, with extremely cold nighttime temperatures completing our dramatic diurnal cycle. <br><br> <span style="font-weight: bold; color: #1E347C;">Food Pairing: </span><br> Orchid Hill Pinot Noir is wonderful with grilled portabello mushrooms, saut&#233;ed veal cutlets or warm goat cheese with mild herbs. <br><br> <span style="font-weight: bold; color: #1E347C;">Technical Notes: </span><br> <table style= border="0" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0"> <tbody> <tr> <td>Appellation:</td> <td> Paso Robles</td> </tr> <tr> <td>Soils:</td> <td>Limestone and Shale</td> </tr> <tr> <td>Oak:</td> <td> 12 months in French oak, 40% new </td> </tr> <tr> <td>Alcohol:</td> <td>14.4%</td> </tr> </tbody> </table> </div> <br> <a href="http://www.nexternal.com/flatiron/?category=37" style="text-decoration: none; color: #a60000; font-weight: bold;" target=_top> Return to Orchid Hill Wine List</a> </P> <P><B>Other products in the winery <A HREF="http://www.nexternal.com/flatiron/Category37" TITLE="Orchid Hill">Orchid Hill</A>:</B> <BR clear=left><BR><A HREF=http://www.nexternal.com/flatiron/Product160 TITLE="Orchid Hill 2005 Viognier"><IMG SRC="https://store.nexternal.com/flatiron/images/Orchid-Hill-Viognier-05[th].jpg" ALIGN=left ALT="Orchid Hill 2005 Viognier" NAME="Orchid Hill 2005 Viognier" BORDER=0 HSPACE=10></A> <A HREF=http://www.nexternal.com/flatiron/Product160 TITLE="Orchid Hill 2005 Viognier">Orchid Hill 2005 Viognier</A> -- <a href="http://wine.appellationamerica.com/wine-region/Paso-Robles.html" target=_new>Paso Robles</a> <BR clear=left><BR><A HREF=http://www.nexternal.com/flatiron/Product161 TITLE="Orchid Hill 2004 Primi Zinfandel"><IMG SRC="https://store.nexternal.com/flatiron/images/Orchid-Hill-Zinfandel-Primi-04[th].jpg" ALIGN=left ALT="Orchid Hill 2004 Primi Zinfandel" NAME="Orchid Hill 2004 Primi Zinfandel" BORDER=0 HSPACE=10></A> <A HREF=http://www.nexternal.com/flatiron/Product161 TITLE="Orchid Hill 2004 Primi Zinfandel">Orchid Hill 2004 Primi Zinfandel</A> -- <a href="http://wine.appellationamerica.com/wine-region/Paso-Robles.html" target=_new>Paso Robles</a> <BR clear=left><BR><A HREF=http://www.nexternal.com/flatiron/Product158 TITLE="Orchid Hill 2003 Estate Syrah"><IMG SRC="https://store.nexternal.com/flatiron/images/Orchid-Hill-Syrah-03[th].jpg" ALIGN=left ALT="Orchid Hill 2003 Estate Syrah" NAME="Orchid Hill 2003 Estate Syrah" BORDER=0 HSPACE=10></A> <A HREF=http://www.nexternal.com/flatiron/Product158 TITLE="Orchid Hill 2003 Estate Syrah">Orchid Hill 2003 Estate Syrah</A> -- <a href="http://wine.appellationamerica.com/wine-region/Paso-Robles.html" target=_new>Paso Robles</a> </P> <BR clear=left><BR><P><A HREF="http://www.nexternal.com/flatiron" TITLE="Appellation America Products">Appellation America Products</A></P> <BR clear=left><BR><BR><BR><BR> <BR><A HREF="http://wine.appellationamerica.com">Appellation America</A> <BR>Appellation America <A HREF="http://www.nexternal.com" TITLE="ecommerce software">ecommerce software</A> powered by Nexternal
