2022 Pinot Noir
NEW 2022 VINTAGE!
A fuller Pinot Noir than the elegant 2020 vintage, with plenty of layers of darker red fruits and lively spice unfurl to a long finish.
Bright ruby in colour, with aromas of violets glazed cherries, brambles, spice and a hint of undergrowth. A rich palate of ripe cherries, plum with earthy undertones, subtle oak and velvety tannins.
Lingering flavours of spiced plum/prune and subtle Christmas spices leave you longing for another sip.

Hand-picked on 29th March 2022 from two thirds 114 Dijon clone and one third 777 clone. The 777 clone is a lighter and more perfumed Pinot Noir clone than 114 (a great all-rounder), which adds complexity and sophistication to this wine with the more muscular 114 from the 2022 vintage.
The cooler year lead to more traditional winemaking techniques with all fruit destemmed prior to fermentation. The wine was aged for 9 months again in older French oak barriques, with older oak better to preserve the purity of the fruit. A great vintage where the elegance and completeness of this wine was equally a product of nature and a combination of Pinot Noir clones as it was winemaking finesse. Cellaring for up to 5 years will be rewarded.
Perfect with duck, ragout, mushroom dishes, blue cheese, brie, or even pizza.
