Paul Cluver Auction Selection Pinot Noir 2014
The grapes were sourced and selected from our highest lying mountain vineyards on De Rust Estate and are all new clones (667,113,115). After harvesting at night, the grapes were destemmed and transferred without pumping to four ton wooden fermenters, cold soaked for nine days with the fermentation starting without inoculation. Punched down twice a day and after fermentation only free run wine was transferred to 300 litre barrels for maturation. The wine was then left in barrel for 11 months before bottling.
