Characteristic perfumed, fragrant aromas highlighted by cherry and red berry fruits, complemented by a touch of spice and underlying French oak. The long, silky palate has lovely elegance, a plush, velvety texture and a finely poised finish.
Handpicked, with each parcel handled separately in the winery. Hand sorted and carefully destemmed (25% whole bunches), each parcel went into traditional open fermenters. The wine underwent three days of cold soaking to ensure even and thorough extraction. Batches were on skins for 7-10 days, after which time they were transferred into French oak (500L puncheons & 6500L cuvees) for 10 months.
A light bodied Pino that is very drinkable either lunch or dinner and full of all the right flavours that you would expect from a wine tthat evolved from the Yarra valley.
I love this smooth, tasty drop with no hint of the bitiness of its similarly priced competitors. Delicious. I am going to order some more. Cheers to Red Claw
No surprises in the quality of this Peninsular Pinot. Light, earthy warmth at a price that makes this a no-regret purchase.
