About the wine
Easy drinking drop with excellent fruit from CA's Russian River region
- This delightful Pinot Noir is made using pristine fruit hailing all the way from the Californian wine region in the USA. Expert winemaker Daryl Groom has brilliantly showcased Russian River Valley grapes, blending his carefully selected choices into a wine that really demonstrates the different attributes of each vineyard.
- It was aged in 100% French Oak, 24% was new, which has given it a lovely punch of flavour. Daryl was the chief Red and White winemaker at Penfolds, and has demonstrated his skill with this soft, easy to drink drop.
- “I feel this Pinot is a lovely, generous style with richness and evident red berry fruit aromas,” Daryl explains. “The palate is soft and approachable and it is so easy to consume.” He’s right - this is a very friendly and vibrant wine that everyone can enjoy.
Best before
I love this wine for drinking now because of its vibrancy and youthfulness and softness. It will have ever age well and be great in 5 years and probably best consumed within 10 years although at that stage it will still be very drinkable.
Serving advice
No need to decant. Just serve straight from the bottle. Serve slightly chilled if its a hot day.
Food match
I always enjoy white meat like pork with my pinots. But being very soft without heavy tannins it an be enjoyed with almost any food.
Contains sulphites
