2020 Mystery Old Vines Waipara Pinot Noir

An amazing deal on this delicious "cleanskin" Pinot we have sourced from some of the oldest vines in North Canterbury. As always, the producer will remain a fascinating source of mystery — but rest assured they are old hands in the region, known for a highly regarded label that is a favourite on our shelf. This has had the full works that only top shelf pinot noir receives. Hand harvested and hand sorted. Each clone is picked separately, and they stay separate until final blending. 20% is fermented as whole cluster with a mixture of wild and organically cultured yeast . The ferments are all managed with gentle punch down by hand. 25% New French oak is used. The wine is unfined. A Pinot worth much much more than its price, this is one of those deals... Grab this while it's here!
