2022 Red Pinot.
Picked on the 19th October the fruit from Martins Lane vineyard in Essex was outstanding. Small flavoursome berries with 13% natural alcohol and 12 grams of acidity it was perfect. The wine was cold soaked on skins and fermented with 10% of the stalks added back in a punchdown fermenter.
The 2022 Red Pinot was aged in french oak barriques (33% New, 33% One year old and 33% Older). Absolutely stunning in every way it is the finest example of Pinot Noir I have ever seen. No exaggeration!
This wine is dedicated to Roy Martin of Martins Lane Vineyard with who we have worked with since 2013 and suddenly passed away in June of this year
