Verum Pinot Noir

Blend: 100% Pinot Noir

Location: High Valley, Rio Negro, Patagonia

Altitude: 300 M.A.S.L.

Alcohol: 12.5% ABV

Tasting Note: A nose of wild raspberries and subtle wood smoke. The palate is clean and refreshing with smoky notes, red and purple skinned fruits and just a touch of earth.

Vinification: Following hand picking and destemming the fruit is cold soaked for 3 days. Following this is a warm fermentation (25 – 26 °C) with a total maceration of 15 days. 5% of the wine is aged in French oak for 6 months. Once bottled the wine is aged for a further 8 months before release.

Vegetarian: Yes

Vegan: Yes

Food Match: Being on the more mid-weight side of Pinot, and with lovely expressions of red and purple fruits, this would work particularly well with duck and mild game dishes.
