Aroma

Cherry, nutmeg and strawberry.

Palate

Firm, fine grained tannins support a gentle, fruity structure. Concentrated red berries and subtle earthy notes.

Cellaring

Made with the express intention of cellaring, the primary fruit notes will slowly transform and earthy, spicy complexity will emerge. The fine tannin structure should see this wine peak between 2022 and 2027.

Winemaking

Handpicked in the cool of morning, the grapes naturally fermented and were hand plunged in open vats over several weeks. A portion of the bunches were left as whole bunches. After draining to barrels for 14 months, the wine was blended to rest in tank several months before bottling.

Vintage

2017 proved to suit Pinot Noir very well. A pleasant summer led to a cooler period immediately before harvest – perfect for retaining acidity and flavour at the time of Pinot Noir final ripening.

Vineyard

Vineyard Omaka Valley - clay/silt loam over clay bound glacial gravel on a steeply sloping, direct North facing aspect.

Alcohol

12.5%

Vegan Friendly
