Winemaking:

This Pinot Noir was hand harvested into small picking crates to keep the fruit intact and prevent any unwanted crushing of the berries. The grapes were then destemmed and 50% of the fruit is crushed, while the other 50% remains whole berry during a 5 day cold soak and alcoholic fermentation. Once alcoholic fermentation is complete and the tannin structure is right, we gently press. After settling, the wine is put into French oak barrels for malolactic fermentation and aging. The wine is sulphured in barrel to preserve the character and fruit and continues to age with careful monitoring. A light filtration is carried out before bottling.

Appearance:

Garnet with a ruby hue

Aroma:

A concentrated Pinot Noir with ripe raspberry, floral notes, sweet red cherries, and spices. Fruit driven wine with secondary notes
of toast and leather.

Palate:

Medium-bodied Pinot Noir balanced on a refreshing acidity. Flavours of spicy clove, earth, bright red cherry, and blackberries. Layers of smooth tannins fill the mid-palate with flavours of both black and red fruits, leather and toastiness. This wine pairs well with duck and most game birds like pheasant or quail.
