Description
Palliser Estate’s wines seem to just get better and better, and under the watchful eye of Guy McMaster and his team, the wines have stepped up to another level again. This 2022 Single Vineyard Hua Nui Pinot Noir is nothing short of a showstopper. 100% fruit from their organic vineyard Hua Nui, a selection of clones, all handpicked and fermented with 5% whole cluster. The wine is then pressed to French oak
barrels for a period of 10 months during which time it undergoes malolactic fermentation to soften the wine and add complexity.
Tasting Notes :
The wine shows an enticing, entrancing nose of cherries, raspberry, smoky oak, pomegranate and star anise. Juicy and expressive with lavish helpings of cherry and spice, a wall of velvety tannins enveloping your palate to remind you of its future potential. Fine, piquant acidity refreshes as the long, complex finish lingers long after you’ve swallowed. An elegant and complex style of Pinot.
