Hand-picked, open-fermented with 50% whole bunches, matured for 6 months in French oak (10% new). This is a very impressive pinot noir. It's obvious the cool vintage wasn't too cool, although it also required a sure touch in the winery, letting the wine have its say and not over-extracting it. The spicy, savoury elements are balanced, and held in a sheath of red berry fruits.
