Alcohol: 13.5%
Production: 500 cases
Date Tasted: April 18th, 2019
Tasting Notes: This Blanc de Noirs shows another side of Pinot Noir, well, less a 'side', really, more like its innards; rich and unctuous, in texture, reminiscent of the clear, fleshy part of the grape and flavoured with beautiful, white peach, melon and honeycomb characters. The fullness is balanced by plenty of fresh orchard fruit acidity and just a touch of cool minerality. Pair with a white fish dish or try it at Easter brunch with your eggs Benedict. Drink now-2021.
