Decades Coal River Valley Pinot Noir 2023

Producers Notes - "Our 2023 Pinot Noir has all the classic blue fruits that come from the Coal River Valley's unique black clay soil. The fruit characters are dense, with a touch of Campari spice aroma, from the small whole bunch parcel. The region does fruit density exceptionally well, but we've tried to tease out a little perfume delicacy.

The fruit was hand-picked in two parcels. The first parcel fermented entirely as whole bunches. The second was de-stemmed, then cold soaked for 5 days before a slow wild fermentation. Both parcels were pressed into small seasoned French oak for malolactic fermentation and left on lees for 9 months.

The wine was bottled on 4th February 2024 and is limited to only 350 cartons. "
