2023 Cri de Coeur Pinot Noir
Just under half of the fruit that went to our '23 Cri de Coeur Pinot was whole bunch fermented, enhancing the complexity of this wine. Lifted aromas of wild strawberry, dark cherry and rose, layered with whole bunch spice, stemmy perfume and a savoury earthy edge. Quietly powerful on the palate with silky tannins, bright natural acidity and a long, mineral finish. Bottled without fining or filtration.
Tasting Notes
Over the past two decades we’ve embraced sustainable viticultural practices, introduced top grafting with new clones, and adopted cane pruning techniques, all key to the evolution of our winemaking. In 2012 we launched our super premium Cri de Coeur (Cry of the Heart) label, crafted in tiny quantities to express the pinnacle of our viticultural and winemaking journey that spans more than 40 years and two generations.
