Bannock Brae
Goldfields Pinot Noir 2016

Central Otago, New Zealand

Varietal:  Pinot Noir

Aroma:  It is fragrant, perfumed and charming.  This wine is instantly inviting while still guarding secrets to unveil.  The nose is powerful and beguiling with notes of sweet cherries, violets and wild thyme. 

Palate:  The palate is full and fresh with silky fine tannins and prominent acidity.  It is unassuming yet complex.  This is a perfect wine for everyday enjoyment as well as special occasions.

Bottle Closure:  Screw Cap

Vinification:  The grapes were hand-harvested mid to late April.  They were crushed and destemmed into 4-Tonne stainless fermenters.  They were ‘cold soaked’ for about a week, then inoculated and allowed to ferment reaching a peak temperature of 31 degrees C.  After cooling, the wine was racked into French oak barrels and left until the following March undergoing a malolactic fermentation during winter.  The wine was finally cold stabilised and gently fined, but not filtered, ready for bottling.

Winemaker:  Jen Parr

Alcohol:  14.3%
