VASCM: Wine question

[Jim Varano]

Members, I know this is a vineyard forum...but I know there are a few who make wine...I am new at this and I have read a few books.....and what I have read is that you press when Brix are at 0... I went to a place in Campbell for a 300 liter stainless barrel.....and this person said for Pinot Noir you press at 4 Brix?......he seemed knowledgeable ...but that threw me...no where else have I found that figure of 4 Brix for pressing.....

Is this correct? I am doing nothing fancy...just want to make a nice wine, using the "norm" in making it.
Thanks
