Pinot Paradise 2010 (Technical Seminar on Yeast Influences, and Grand Tasting) (Villa Ragusa, Campbell, California): Dark cherry red color; berry, oak nose; rich, tart cherry, floral palate; medium finish (yeast favored for bringing complexity and density to wine, as well as its ability to create a complete wine, with elegance, intensity and structure; a very demanding yeast though, that always needs feeding, i.e., with nitrogen and other nutrients; tasted this at yeast technical seminar at Pinot Paradise, and it's currently available as a bottling on the winery's website; one of 5 yeasts used in final blend of '07 San Vicente Vineyard Pinot Noir)
