100% Pinot Noir

Wine of Origin: Elgin
Winemaker: Richard Kershaw MW

The Vertiginous Pinot Noir, made from the rare Clone 52, originates from the steep, dryland slopes of central Elgin. Clone 52 is known for producing wines with a balanced profile of lightness, delicate floral notes and a distinctive tannic structure. The delestage process used for extraction enriches its depth and colour, while natural malolactic fermentation in Burgundy barrels provides a creamy, balanced finish, enhancing the ageability of this wine.

Tasting Notes: Floral nuances, almond pip, and sour cherry notes are underpinned by a subtle oak impression, leading to a vivid fruit expression with powdery tannins, juicy acidity, and an expansive finish.

Ready for drinking 2027 to 2032.
