Dark cherry, wild thyme and spice permeate from this rich, lively pinot noir from New Zealand’s Central Otago. It’s silky and soft with Juicy acid and well-balanced tannins that will have you reaching for a second and third glass. A great food-friendly red, it will pair beautifully with roast chicken or any gamey meats.
Bright and lively on the nose showing cherry, cranberry and spice aromas.
100% Pinot Noir
225 Litre French oak barrels.
The palate is silky, with a melange of berry fruits up front along with underlying notes of savoury herbs, spice and earth. A fine acid profile ensures a clean finish and persistence of flavour.
The Pinot Noir fruit for this wine was cold soaked for up to 5 days before being fermented in a mix of 5 and 10 Tonne open top fermenters. Fermentation was carried out by a combination of naturally occurring and inoculated yeast, with an average duration of 5 – 7 days during which the cap was plunged twice daily to ensure gentle colour and tannin extraction. Where possible the wine was allowed extended time on skins.
