What distinguishes PN clone 115?

Pinot Noir clone traits affect how a vine performs and the resulting wine’s intensity. Clone 115 is distinguished by low yields and small berries, which increase the skin-to-juice ratio and concentrate color, tannin, and aromas, helping create wines of high quality with strong presence. The other described traits don’t match this clone’s typical profile: drought tolerance isn’t its standout feature, large berries with higher yields would dilute concentration, and late ripening isn’t its defining characteristic.
