Plantagenet - Normand Pinot Noir 2024 750ml
"A combination of hand-picked fruit used for whole bunch "carbonic maceration" and machine-harvested fruit. The individual parcels were fermented in small open-top fermenters and pigeaged twice daily. Pressed at dryness and aged for ten months in French oak barriques (~25% new). It was minimally fined and filtered before bottling.
COLOUR Vibrant red-purple.
AROMATICS A very pretty nose of bright red berries, dark cherries, dusty tannins, and lightly roasted coffee bean from French oak maturation.
PALATE Despite a warmer than average vintage, this wine exhibits a bright, natural raspberry acidity which drives a long and generous palate. Bursting with red cherries and strawberry there is also a subtle earthiness that adds complexity and finesse. The tannins are silky and glide across the palate creating a plush, well-structured Pinot Noir. " - Plantagenet
