Winemaking Team: Swan Michel B.V & O. Lincoln University

Grape Variety: 100% Pinot Noir

Fermentation: This 100% Pinot Noir was harvested as whole clusters. It was fermented with a selected burgundy yeast in open fermenters for over a week before being pressed off. It was then put through full Malolactic fermentation. The wine was then racked into two-year-old French oak barriques and matured for a further 8 months.

Tasting Notes: An elegant wine with seductive spice and smoke aromas leading into a cascade of ripe red berry fruit flavours, forest floor characters and a hint of chocolate, encompassed by velvety smooth tannins.
