Description
In a nutshell:
Silken threads of cherry and spice pirouette across a backdrop of earthy charm - a Californian Pinot Noir that commands your attention.
The lowdown:
A Californian Pinot Noir that presents a charming dance of red fruits - think bright cherry and raspberry - underscored by a touch of earth and a whisper of oak. The texture is silky, and lively acidity keeps the whole thing vibrant. Sourced from Monterey's Central Coast, the grapes benefit from cooling Pacific breezes, ideal for preserving Pinot Noir's delicate character. Fermentation occurs in stainless steel to retain freshness, while a third of the blend sees eight months in French oak, adding a hint of baking spice. Overall, it's a captivating and versatile wine, showcasing the elegance for which this region's Pinot Noirs are known.
The Producer:
Boutinot, the guys responsible for this wine, is a big name in the UK's wine scene and are behind many labels seen on shelves up and down the country. Paul Boutinot kicked things off in 1980, starting with importing wines and soon partnering with winemakers around the globe. They've since gone on to produce their own wines from places like the Rhône Valley, Italy, South Africa and many other places. Their secret is in backing passionate winemakers who aren't afraid to push the envelope, always aiming for wines that really capture the essence of their regions. This, along with providing excellent value for money, is something they've really nailed.
When to drink:
A classic Pinot Noir, this wine has enough body to stand up to the richness of roast duck or a creamy wild mushroom risotto, yet also complements the delicate flavours of simply grilled salmon.
Suitable for Vegans
