Rochford Estate 2020 ‘Dan’s Les Bois’ Pinot Noir (6 Bottles) Yarra Valley

$280.00 GST Included

AUSTRALIA WIDE SHIPPING INCLUDED

Quite a fragrant expression of Upper Yarra Pinot, yet a fine and delicate wine reflecting the very cool growing season. Warm spice notes of cinnamon, clove and rosemary meet plum and red cherry fruits. The palate is delicate yet charming with plum, rhubarb, some forestry notes with a gentle tannin that allows the fruit flavours to linger.

Description

Viticultural Notes: The grapes for this wine are Upper Yarra Valley from Genbrook. Gembrook is known for its volcanic derived red soils and a granite outcrop. These quartz rich soils are perfect for growing Pinot Noir and Chardonnay.

Dijon clones 114 and 115, ‘Dans les Bois’ translates to ‘In the Woods,’ as this incredible vineyard block is sheltered on all sides by natural forest.

The 2018 harvest will be remembered fondly by winemakers in the Yarra Valley. It was a rare season that gave above average yields and excellent quality fruit. Dry sunny conditions with cool overnight temperatures provided good natural acidity and concentrated wines at lower alcohol levels.
