About this Item

Hamilton Russell Vineyards
Pinot Noir, 2005
6 (1 x 6) 750ml

Located behind the old fishing village of Hermanus, is one of the most southerly wine Estates in Africa, Hamilton Russell. The estate was purchased in 1975 by Tim Hamilton Russell and in 1991 his son, Anthony Hamilton Russell, took over and immediately narrowed their range down to only Chardonnay and Pinot Noir. This proved to be a masterstroke and made the Hemel-en-Aarde valley notorious for producing the best Pinot Noir and Chardonnay in South Africa and a recognised expression outside of Burgundy.

Critics Ratings

‘Experiments with native yeast fermentation and lighter filtration pay off with refined, intense mineral/fruit purity and focus of the ‘05, perfumed and elegant as ever; superbly managed oaking in early harmony. Silky length, deeply satisfying. International acclaim for previous vintages is unsurprising’. - Platter’s SA Wine Guide 2007, 4.5*
