Dalrymple Single Site Pinot Noir 2021 Coal River Valley - 6 Bottles

Product Description

WINERY INFORMATION

The fruit was hand-harvested into small picking bins and delivered to the Dalrymple winery. Twenty per cent was selected to keep as whole bunches and the remaining fruit was de-stemmed and placed in three small open top fermenters. Fermentation began three days later and finished after six days with daily hand plunging. Each fermenter was drained and pressed separately before being filled into a selection of French oak barriques (30 per cent new) for 10 months.

TASTING NOTES

An immediate wave of Asian spices with some cinnamon and cloves lift from the glass, supported by sour cherries, blood plum flesh and rose petals. Hints of some savoury notes develop over 3 - 4 hours of opening with riper fruit flavours. The richness of the palate ends with a long silky tannin finish; with lift and freshness from a fine acid line, that will allow complexity to build over the next 8-12 years if well cellared. Enjoy with Kangaroo fillet with a warm beetroot salad.
