Winters Drift Pinot Noir 2012

100% Pinot Noir.

Poignant oak and cherry aromas dominate the nose. Supporting aromas are predominately vegetal in nature and include forest floor, rhubarb and mushroom. Perfect for white meat and vegetable dishes.

30% whole bunch and 70% destemmed. No cold soak took place. Grapes and must was not inoculated with selected wine yeasts and fermentation was left to start naturally. Malolactic fermentation took place in 300 L French Oak barrels. The wine was not racked before bottling and did not go through any filtrations prior to bottling.

The Pinot Noir vineyards have a (cooler) south facing aspect, and are 310m above sea level. Planted with a vine spacing of 2.5m x 1.5m in deep red/yellow soils with high water retention capacity, but very well drained.
