Crossroads Milestone Series Marlborough Pinot Noir 2015
Description
This expressive Pinot Noir has lifted aromas of black plums and violets. Ripe berry fruit flavours combine with savoury notes on the palate to produce a wine that is both elegant and approachable.
A great accompaniment to lamb, duck or pork dishes.
The moderate and dry temperatures of summer ripened the fruit beautifully with harvest commencing on the 19th March. Once at the winery, each batch of Pinot Noir was dealt with individually to emphasize the unique characteristics of each vineyard block. Once the primary fermentations were complete, all batches were put into French oak barriques of which twenty percent were new. Once in barrel, the wine was chilled and stored for the winter. With the onset of spring, the barrels were warmed to encourage natural malolactic fermentation. Following seven months in oak the wine was racked from barrel, blended before fining and then bottled.
