Default PA & Balance in Pinot Noir

I am considering ordering a Pinot Noir juice from Presque Isle. They
gave me the numbers on the two frozen juices they have in stock:

Brix pH TA
CPN00 24.8 3.75 0.68

CPN01 26.1 3.57 0.67

It seems like the 01 would might be riper and has nicer pH. But would
this make a wine too "hot" at PA 14.5% to 15% alcohol?

TIA,

art

It's only a little high in sugar. I'd probably go with it as is. If you
ferment hot to get good color extraction you'll lose some of the alcohol.
However, if you want lower alcohol, a little acidulated water would be fine.
Or, you could buy half of the '01 and half of the '00 and blend before
fermenting.

Regards,

John
