Bouchard Finlayson Pinot Noir 2009
In the winemaking, 10% of the grapes were supplied as whole bunch and 60% as whole berry. The wine underwent cold maceration for 3-4 days with post fermentation maceration of ten days. Lightly pressed and barrel matured for 16 months. The wine was bottled with minimal filtration after thorough microbiological examination. Tasting note: Profound, complex fruity flavours with deep wild forest and red berry earthiness and full mouthed acid tannin balance. Should age for up to seven years. Drink now and until 2018.
