Notes from Producer

Parcels of Pinot Noir grapes from the Blue Pyrenees Estate vineyard were quickly pressed after night harvesting to minimise colour and phenolic extraction. The resulting pale pink juice was fermented to dryness by selected yeast strains, in temperature controlled stainless steel tanks. The young wines then underwent malo-lactic fermentation whilst being battonaged on primary yeast lees, which imparts the creamy mid palate and naturally stabilises the wine. These grapes and techniques create an ideal luncheon wine that matches many foods but should be served lightly chilled.

Appearance: Pale salmon pink colour.

Nose: Aromas of strawberry, watermelon and red apple.

Palate: The palate follows on from the aroma’s lead with red apple, rosewater, strawberry and a creamy mid palate. You will find a soft fleshy palate with plenty of length and structure whilst retaining a fresh & dry finish. A thoroughly enjoyable wine on a warm summer day or evening.
