Wine Analysis: | Alc/Vol: 12% |
Colour: | The Pirie Vintage is showing bright, golden colours with hints of green at the edges. |
Aroma: | There is some lovely lemon biscuit and granny smith apple flavours and a yeasty complexity to the nose. |
Palate: | The palate is powerful and the cool-climate Tasmanian acidity kicks in to leave a perfect balance. |
Peak Drinking: | This wine is ready to drink now and will continue to develop nicely over the next 6 years. |
Recommended food pairings: The perfect accompaniment to a range of canapés including cured salmon with a ponzu sauce or a salt and pepper squid. Or try it with lemon infused grilled chicken breast and a fresh garden salad.
Growing Conditions: The grapes used to make this wine were grown in the cool-climate vineyards of northern Tasmania. The wine is a blend of Pinot Noir 52% and Chardonnay 48%. The grapes were handpicked and whole-bunch pressed with the fruit harvested from early March to early April 2017 at 10.0 to 11.0 baumé.
Winemaking notes: The wine was made in strict adherence to the traditional method techniques with 100% of the wine undergoing malolactic fermentation, and a long, slow secondary fermentation in the bottle. It spent 3 years resting on lees prior to disgorging and dosage.
