2017 Tindall Organic Reserve Pinot Noir

Tindall Vineyard

Marlborough

This elegant Pinot Noir displays aromas of dark cherry, floral, and a hint of spicy oak. Wild yeast fermentation has created a wonderful array of savoury characters and underlying earthy tones. The silky palate shows rich red fruit flavours, savouriness and well integrated oak. Gentle acidity and fine tannins give this wine great balance and structure promising longevity


Viticulture

Grown on European style high density planting, using top quality Burgundy clones. The canopy is meticulously worked on to ensure even ripening, intense flavours and good tannin structure.


Vinification

Handpicked and sorted into 15kg bins, then chilled overnight at 2ºC to preserve delicate flavours.  The cold fruit is de-stemmed and crushed into open top fermenters. Fermented using wild yeast and aged for 12 months in high quality French barriques.
