Spring Vale Pinot Noir 2021

Deep ruby red in colour, this Pinot Noir has powerful aromas of dark cherry and spice with subtle hints of dried herbs. The palate has the trademark Spring Vale intensity of dark berry fruit flavours, plush mouthfeel and forest floor undertones. Finishes with persistent velvety tannins. Will reward careful cellaring of 5-10 years, but if you don’t have the patience enjoy with spicy barbequed leg of lamb.

A blend of original 1986 plantings trained on the Lyre system and 2000 plantings on the VSP system with a clonal mix of D2V6, D5V12, 114, 115. Soils are old red loams of volcanic origin.
