Our Tasting Note
Ruby core with garnet flecks, lightly transparent. Medium+ aromas of red to dark red berry and cherry fruits, crushed florals, some spicy cracked black pepper, and subtle toasty notes. The palate is medium bodied, with fine and very fine tannins, med/med+ snappy acidity, with medium+ palate intensity of cherry, strawberry, raspberry, subtle spices, and a touch of mineral crunch. A fresh and mouthwatering finish!

Winemaking Notes
De-stemming and sorting of the grapes, gravity-flow grape delivery, pre-fermentation maceration at 5°C for one week. Vinification under temperature control Altemating punchingdown and pumping over depending on the tasting. Aged for 6 months in vats and 500-litre barrels (10% of the cuvée). 

Serving Suggestions
A lighter styled Pinot Noir, you can serve this chilled and it is a perfect foil to charcuterie, savory snacks, roasted white meats, and fish in the appropriate sauces. When served warmer at at room temperature, it complements  well with red meats, feathered game and creamy cheeses.
