2020 Pipers Brook Vineyard PIPERS Pinot Noir

Notes from the winery....
Produced from grapes grown at Pipers Brook and at Strathlynn on the west bank of the Tamar River, 70km away. These 30-year-old vines give low yields with increase concentration and flavour. Predominantly Vertical Shoot Positioned (VSP) trellises, which expose bunches to the sun, thus achieving full maturity with well-balanced flavours and fine, ripe tannins.
The wine was gently pressed off skins using both basket press and bag press prior to full malolactic fermentation. Bottled under screw cap to preserve intensely perfumed aromatics and expressive fruit. Mulberry, black cherry and earthy notes with hints of licorice. Abundant berry fruits with subtle spice and soft, silky tannins.
