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.
