Bouchard Finlayson Auction Reserve Pinot 2001
100% Pinot Noir – 2001 was a vintage when the weather gods had empathy with the farmers. A great summer with soft dry weather and excellent high quality fruit. The wine underwent fermentation and maceration for 21 days in closed vessels, followed by fifteen month barrel ageing in new Mercury barrels. Tasting note: The new wood compliment has given the wine great structure, with full, soft tannins to ensure many years of positive development. Aromatically scented with exciting whiffs of truffles and fruits of the forest.
