Carrick Wines Unravelled Pinot Noir 2017

~~$29.00~~ $26.10

This wine displays lots of vibrant fruit from red cherry, raspberry to blackberries with a hint of spice underneath. The front palate is packed with sweet bright fruit with the same red cherries and blackberries on the nose following through to the flavours. The soft tannins give this wine lovely mid-palate weight with a dark cocoa finish. This is a vibrant, fruit driven wine that can be cellared or enjoyed in its youth.

4 STARS – Raymond Chan, July 2018

Description

All of the vineyard is tended by hand, allowing for careful management of the individual vines from pruning, leaf plucking and shoot-thinning right through to harvesting. The wine is fermented in small open top fermenters and typically has a 5-7 day pre-ferment cold soak with minimal punch downs throughout fermentation, followed by 5-7 days extended maceration. All parcels are carefully de-stemmed and undergo wild, indigenous, yeast fermentation which encapsulate the Carrick fruit characters. The wine is matured for 11 months in French oak, of which about 15% is new.
