2019 Scorpo Noirien Pinot Noir, Mornington Peninsula

This Noirien Pinot Noir is a gorgeously fragrant expression of Pinot from Mornington Peninsula. The fruit for this cuvée comes from the Scorpo family`s 4 hectare Stanleys Road Vineyard, planted in 2000. Cold soaking of the destemmed grapes prior to fermentation has enhanced its vibrant, ripe flavours. It went on to age in just 5% new oak for 12 months, again to ensure that oak character be a supporting act to the wine`s natural, vital fruitiness. Pale ruby colour, aromas recall freshly picked wild strawberries. This is a full bodied, concentrated, bouncy wine, very refreshing, with fine, elegant structure and a clean, bright finish.
