TASTING NOTES

PINOT NOIR 2024 WINEMAKING

Hand-harvested March 4–8, 2024, destemmed and cold soaked for two days prior to fermenting on skins in open-top fermenters over ~10 days. Matured in 30% new and aged oak barriques for ten months before racking and bottling in March 2025.

After an unusually warm and dry winter, the growing season started 2-3 weeks earlier than usual. Ample Spring rainfall and moderate temperatures were welcome, which evolved into an extremely dry summer, assisting the ripening process, producing higher than average yields but preserving full flavours and acidity.
