An excellent example of a cool climate Pinot Noir, well balanced, it has soft tannins and juicy strawberry and red cherry on the palate. Leather, spice and chocolate complement fresh plums and a smooth and creamy finish. The fruit was selected from our Bolney and Pookchurch vineyards. The Pinot Noir grapes were hand-picked, crushed and fermented on skins for around 7 days at 25-28°C. Fermentation was in small individual tanks, allowing punchdown by hand. After pressing, the wine underwent malolactic fermentation in oak barrels to provide a softer, rounder finish.
