Pinot Noir 

13.4%

100% Pinot Noir from Kinvarra Vineyard in the town of Plenty.

A small parcel of fruit was left out  an extra 2 weeks to allow for the stems to fully ripen and lignify, in an effort to avoid any green notes in the finished wine. 1.2t of hand picked fruit was transferred to a CO2 saturated tank and sealed for 4 weeks of carbonic maceration. Basket pressed to tank to finish ferment and mature for 4 months prior to bottling. High toned estery notes from the carbonic fermentation, grape flavoured hubba bubba (in the best possible way), supple purple fruits and strawberry fool framed by woodsy tannins. Light to medium bodied on the palate, with enough sass to keep things interesting. 

Versatile drinking for mid week through to the weekend, from pizzas through to picnics.
