2019 Pinot Meunier
Tasting Notes
Plenty of Pinot character but combined with darker fruits and spicy
forest berry. The palate is supple, lithe and even with layered tannins
holding the typical crunchy red cherry flavour finishing form the
fine-grain savory French oak. Terrific balance and resolve with great
line and lingering finish.
Viticulture:
The Meunier vines were planted in 1999 and are now hitting
their straps producing some great fruit. The vine are cane
pruned and restricted to 20 buds. Trained to a VSP open
canopy to provide plenty of sunlight & air movement. The vines
are grown dry to intensify the tannins by encouraging root
growth. Leaf plucking was done on the southern side prior to
the nets being hung. The fruit was picked at optimal ripeness on
23rd February.
Vinification:
The grapes were fermented in open pots after being
destemmed not crushed. The wine underwent a cold
soak maceration for 7 days prior to being left to
commence fermentation naturally with indigenous
yeasts. Following pressing the wine was racked off heavy
lees to a selection of new & seasoned French oak
barriques. Malo ferment occurred slowly but naturally &
the wine was left on fine lees for 11 months before it was
racked & left to settle in tank for another 3 months before
it received a light filtration prior to bottling.
