Tasting Notes

ELDRIDGE ESTATE Wines

 

2008 Pinot Noir

 

Deep red colour with a nose that is rich with summer berries. The palate starts with red cherry, moves through some blackberry and a little fennel. The finish is long and supple, held together with finely balanced oak and finishing acid.

This wine is made to last!

Food match : Duck cassoulet.

This wine is a blend of six different clones of Pinot Noir planted across our vineyard and harvested over a three week period in March 2007. All the clones were fermented separately using wild yeast. The wines were pressed in our gentle air bag press and then aged in French oak barrels from a range of tonnelleries.

Vintage: 2008

Chemistry: 14.0% Alcohol by Volume, pH 3.45 and Total Acid of 6.1g/L
