- A full-flavoured and expressive Pinot, this silky and elegant wine has savoury nuances of forest floor and ripe strawberries. Intense aromas of cherries and ripe plums combine with sweet spice notes and a touch of white truffles. This linear, vibrant wine delivers ripe wild berry fruits and raspberry notes that are pure and fleshy. It is smooth and beautifully balanced through to a mineral finish.
The grapes in each vineyard sector were analysed according to their taste profile and physiological ripeness and then hand-picked at optimal ripeness. Once the grapes arrived at the winery they were then cooled down for 12 hours before being carefully selected. They were destemmed and transferred immediately to stainless steel tanks, where fermentation occurred at 23°C, followed by maceration in a very reductive environment. The total vinification lasted 25 days. The wine was racked into French oak barrels of second passage for eight months. The wine was not fined before bottling.

| Winery | The fruit for this Pinot Noir comes from the most granitic soils in the property. Picked from two blocks that were planted in 1999 and 2002, the vine rows with a south-easterly orientation are known as "Block 1" and come from clone 242, whereas the rows with a north-easterly orientation are "Block 20" and come from the exact clone, 242. The vines are trained using the Vertical Shoot Positioning (VSP) method. Careful canopy management takes place with 18 shoots per meter to protect the fruit exposure (less than 15%) and enhance the freshness in the final wine. The vines have two bunches per shoot. |
