[SOLD-OUT] Burn Cottage Cashburn Pinot Noir 2016

"Beautiful expression" - Wine Front 94 Points!

Wine Front 94 Points!


"From Northburn and Mark II vineyards, and the estate vineyard, of course. Fragrant perfume of red berries, leafiness, sour cherry and green olive. The palate is soft, transparent, ethereal – a quiet flow of pale cherry and savoury fruit characters, spice and herbal detail. Lovely crisp acidity and very fine sheath of tannins in tow. Very quiet, beautiful expression."


Mike Bennie, Wine Front, August 2018


"The fruit was harvested by hand between 29th March and 7th April 2016, coming in with an average Brix of 22.4. The blend includes clones 777, 667, 114, 115, 10/5, Abel, 943, Cl5, Cl6, 828 and MV6, coming from three vineyards: Burn Cottage Vineyard (57%); Northburn Vineyard (8%) and Mark II Vineyard (35%). The fruit spent an average of 21 days in the fermenter. The wine has bright aromas of cherry, wild strawberry and florals, complementing the spice and savoury complexity. On the palate the wine is supple and elegant, and fine tannins extend through the long finish."
