Paul Cluver Auction Selection Pinot Noir 2013
The grapes were selected from our highest lying Pinot Noir vineyards and are all new clones – 667, 113, 115. Harvested, cold soaked for 8 days with the fermentation starting naturally and then inoculated. Punched down twice a day. After fermentation, only free run juice was transferred to barrel for malolactic fermentation. The wine was then left in barrel, of which only 25% was new, for 11 months before bottling.
