Bec Hardy Pinot Noir 2024 | 6 Pack
Region: Adelaide
Story: Vibrant and fresh, this wine is one of the best value Pinot Noirs going around - it's the perfect red wine for all seasons!
Vineyard: This wine is a single vineyard Pinot Noir from the Osmond's 'Clay Creek' block located in a beautiful pocket just outside McLaren Flat. The vines are 50 years old, a rarity for Pinot Noir in McLaren Vale. The long established vines make for wonderfully balanced and high quality grapes.
Soils: The soils in this vineyard are deep aluvial clays from the Holocene era (11,700 years old). This area would have been a flood plain that was first planted by settlers so the soils retained water and the vines grew well, even before irrigation.
Harvest date: 14 February 2024
Winemaking: Grapes were picked and had a very short truck ride to the winery which allowed for fast processing after harvest. The grapes were destemmed and chilled to 12degC at the crusher before a 24hr cold soak pre-fermentation. Cool ferment temps allowed for bright fresh fruit flavour retention. Gentle treatment through ferment involved minimal 'handling' of the fruit, with oxygen injection into the ferment 3 time daily to keep the 'cap' wet and extract flavour, colour and tannin from the skins. After 8 days ferment on skins, the wine was pressing to seasoned oak for 3 months before early bottling.
Nose: The nose displays youthful and fresh aromas of strawberries, cherries, and raspberries with additional floral notes.
Palate: The palate is vibrant with red cherries and strawberries, complemented by soft, powdery tannins.
Cellaring: Drink now to 2028
