This Pinot Noir comes from the youngest vines on the Estate planted in 2009. This block was planted in a much higher density to create their own little micro climate and to also allow each vine to put all its effort into the small number of bunches it is producing.
At Mountford Estate, they create wines of character and quality through a policy of watchful, non-interventionist winemaking. A combination of new and traditional techniques and technology are used. Mountford Estate has transitioned to using native yeasts, low sulphur and like all past vintages our wines continue with a no fining or filtration policy where possible. We believe that this is the way to gain a true expression of site and vintage. The vineyard is set in a park-like environment on the North West face of the Waipara Valley’s eastern hills below the Teviotdale range. Dubbed the golden mile, the aspect gains high amounts of light and heat. The soils, which are marl (active limestone), add a fine minerality to the finished wines.
