Description

Commune of Buttons Eurilla Pinot Noir 2021

Grape Varietals & Region: 100% Pinot Noir from Piccadilly Valley, Australia. Coming from their "Cemetery" vineyard which is a west facing 0.5 hectare vineyard. A high altitude site, one of the coolest in the valley offering incredible tannin development for its relatively lower alcohols

Taste Profile: Bright natural acidity and is red fruited with intense cranberries and cherries. There are pleasant savoury undertones of bay and cardamom adding layers of complexity.

Winemaking Process: After hand picking, the grapes were sorted and destemmed with 10% whole bunches. Fermentation was for 3 weeks and elevage was for 10 months in 3 year old barriques

Bright & Easy Reds

Easy drinking red wines with bright fruit aromas and low tannins. The wines are often released without much aging in tank, oak barrels or bottle, and are meant to be drunk early

These wines typically can be nejoyed without food, and are usually served cooler. They can be light bodied wines like Beaujolais, or light extraction styles that do not emphasize tannin & color extraction
