Tasting Notes

The nose is a delightful medley of dark plum, cherry, anise, and toasted nut characters, with a hint of dark mushroom adding depth. On the palate, it is succulent and plump, offering youthful fruit intensity combined with a silky texture and well-integrated tannins. The finish is long and supple, making this an easy-drinking Pinot Noir that offers exceptional value for money.

Perfect Serve

Serve this exquisite Pinot Noir slightly chilled at around 12-14°C. It pairs beautifully with a variety of dishes, including roasted duck, mushroom risotto, and charcuterie boards, making it an excellent choice for both casual dinners and special occasions.

Artisan Craftsmanship

Crafted from hand-picked grapes sourced from a single vineyard in the southern Ward Valley, Snapper Rock Pinot Noiris blessed with deep clay loam soils and traces of limestone. The grapes were hand plunged into open-top fermenters, with part of the wine aged in small tanks and part in seasoned French oak barrels, achieving the perfect balance of freshness and complexity.
