VQA
This Pinot Noir was hand-picked from our oldest Pinot Noir vineyard, the Clark Farm Vineyard. Located in the Four Mile Creek Sub-Appellation, one of the largest sub regions in Niagara, this is the home of premium winemaking. Bright ruby red in colour with a classic bouquet of cherry, earth and hints of spice this medium bodied, elegant Pinot Noir underwent wild fermentation with a small percentage of whole clusters (5%). The resulting wine is dry, bright and driven by both fruit and earth. Serve this elegant Pinot Noir with mushroom based dishes, veal chops and a charcuterie plate.

WINE MAKING
On October 2 and 11, we hand-picked Pinot Noir grapes from our Clark Farm vineyard (planted in 2005) in the Four Mile Creek sub-appellation of Niagara-on-the-Lake. Fermented on skins with indigenous yeast, and extended skin contact of three weeks, in two large wooden vats with a small percentage of whole clusters (5%). Transferred to barrel where a malolactic fermentation occurred, then left on lees for added mouthfeel and structure. Aged for 10 months in older French oak barrels.
FLAVOUR PROFILE
A bright ruby red in colour with a bouquet of cherry, red plum, smoky oak, and a touch of earth and spice. A light to medium-bodied, elegant Pinot Noir with soft drying tannins, balancing acidity, and fine texture. Fruit-forward flavours of red cherry and pomegranate develop on the palate. The lingering finish shows notes of cherry, pomegranate, red berry tea, and subtle spice and oak.
