Description
Inspired by long picnics on a sunny afternoon, our “Sans Souci” WB Pinot Noir is a celebration of the relaxing moments in life, summer holidays.
Designed as a fresh, vibrant wine to be enjoyed now, the 2023 WB Pinot Noir is immediately approachable, with layers of luscious fruit, soft tannins and a velvety texture.
Grab your picnic blanket, pour a glass, pair with fresh bread, soft cheese and cured meats and enjoy!
The 2023 vintage provided healthy winter and spring rains leading into a dry summer of sunny warm days, ideal for berry development. Perfect conditions continued through to harvest on 03 April 2023.
The wine comprises a blend of 50% whole-bunch fermented grapes (H7V15 clone) and the balance being machine crushed grapes (D5V12 clone). Following primary fermentation, the wine was racked to tank where it underwent a malolactic fermentation before being transferred to five-year-old French puncheons, and matured for six months. Blended and bottled in late October 2023.
