Made from selected clonal parcels of fruit across the Hope Vineyard, certified organic since 2011. As a selection wine, it’s precise composition varies from one vintage to the next though our oldest vines comprise the basis of the blend. In this vintage, UCD5 and Dijon clones 115 and 777 offer depth of dark-red fruits together with brighter-red fruit highlights and fresh florals. A component of 100% whole bunch fermented fruit is part of this wine for the first time.
On the nose is a depth of crushed red-berry fruit aromas, citrus florals, fragrant spices and subtle dried herbs. Medium-full bodied with a generous, silky core of concentrated dark-red berry flavours with savoury, secondary detail beginning to unfold. Sweet fruit is balanced by the texture and structure of fine-grained tannins and background acidity. Elegantly concentrated Pinot Noir.
