Vineyard Notes

The fruit used in this wine was sourced from a vineyard near Omena that has ample southern exposure and blended with a dijon clone vineyard.

Production Notes

Our winemaking team used a blend of numerous clones from two different vineyard sites. The addition of a few new clones such as 777 and 667 were used to add complexity.

Food Pairing Notes

Given its higher acidity and low tannins, Pinot Noir is a very versatile wine when it comes to pairing it with food. It pairs particularly well with duck, chicken, pork and mushrooms.

Other Notes

This wine is a blend of 90% Pinot Noir, 4% Merlot, 4% Cabernet Sauvignon and 2% Syrah.
