2021 Old Vine Pinot Meunier
TASTING NOTES
Colour: Bright crimson with a scarlet hue
Bouquet: Deeply scented with red cherries, warm earth, grilled nuts, fresh pastries and dried flowers all in the mix.
Palate: Intense, brooding and focused. Plush red fruits with savoury and silky tannins. The core remains for a long finish.
Cellaring: Still very young and it needs time to express its full potential. Drink in the next 2 to 20 years.
Pairing: Try it with Vitello Tonnato.
Vintage: An excellent season with near perfect growing conditions right through to harvest. Adequate winter and spring rainfalls set the wines up to burst into life and sustain beautifully balanced growth throughout the summer. Autumn was ideal with little rainfall and warm conditions to ensure the grapes matured gracefully.
