Josef Chromy Pinot Noir 2017

TASTING NOTE

This wine has deep, dark cherry and raspberry fruit flavours with hints of mocha and clove. Sweet fruit and subtle savoury tannins provides an elegant, supple and long finish.

PRODUCT NOTE

The grapes are handpicked gently de-stemmed with minimum berry breakage, and placed in small batch open-top fermenters with approximately 30% whole bunches. Regular plunging is used to immerse the skins and extract colour and tannin as gently as possible. After pressing, the wine undergoes malolactic fermentation in French oak barriques and is matured in oak for 12 months prior to bottling.
