Bouchard Finlayson Unfiltered Pinot Noir 2007
In the winemaking, 10% of the grapes were supplied as whole bunch and 50% as whole berry. The grapes underwent cold maceration for 4-5 days and post fermentation maceration of ten days. Lightly pressed and barrel matured for 16 months. The wine was then bottled as unfiltered – after thorough microbiological examination. 50 cases were sold at the 2009 CWG Auction. Tasting note: Engaging aroma of cherries, with long, velvety black fruit and mouth-filling palate.
