PB Pinot Noir 2023

Traditional Burgundian winemaking methods were used to make this wine. We picked various blocks of pinot noir at different stages, depending on their maturity, aiming for a range of red and dark fruit flavours. After maturing for 15mths in barriques (30% new) from selected artisan Burgundian coopers, the batches made from the many different plots and clones of pinot were carefully blended in varying portions to produce the most complex and balanced wine possible.

With its rich ruby hue, Pegasus Bay Pinot Noir 2023 presents a delicately fragranced nose, showcasing notes of raspberry, cherry and violet, underlain with hints of dried herbs and subtle mineral reflections of tree moss and river rock. The mouthfeel is bright and full of vitality, balancing savoury red fruit, backed by seamlessly woven tannins, and a core of frisky acidity that canters across the palate, adding clarity and definition. Effortlessly merging both freshness and a sense of refinement, it concludes with a sleek, elegantly structured dismount.
