100% Pinot Noir
13.5% abv
Grapes are hand-picked and brought to the winery in 20 kg boxes. After passing a hand-sorting stage, fermentation occurs in a stainless steel tank at 24ºC, in which 50% of the grapes are de-stemmed and crushed, and 50% ferment in whole clusters, with very soft pump over, and food trodden. 100% of the wine ages in used french oak barriques for a period of 12 months.
Tasting Notes:
A beautiful ruby colour reveals a well-structured and powerful Pinot Noir, showing typical varietal notes of cherry and gooseberry in harmony with nuances of vanilla and gentle oak. Intense fruit on a long and lasting finish, enhanced when decanted one hour before serving.
Food Pairings:
Enjoy this elegant and rich Pinot Noir on special occasions: serve with duck and beef or tahini vegan/veggie sauce dishes.
