Peos EstateKings Pinot Noir 2018
Dry, Light Bodied style of Pinot Noir
About this product
Dry, Light Bodied style of Pinot NoirThe Pinot Noir grapes were machine harvested then cold soaked for 48 hrs before inoculation. The fermentation was carried out in an open fermenter; it was punched down three times a day to gently extract skin tannins and flavours. Post alcoholic fermentation, the wine was gently pressed and transferred to 30% new and 70% older French oak barrels for malolactic fermentation. The wine remained in barrel for 10 months before final blending. The wine was fined and filtered before bottling.

Showing lovely ripeness and complexity, the bouquet shows sweet plum and cherry characters with nuances of cedar, olive and mixed spice. It is beautifully weighted and supple on the palate, offering fleshy mouthfeel and silky texture, leading to a lingering satisfying finish. At its best: now to 2023.

Succulent cherry richness, with plush tannins, a nicely pitched rhubarb-like tang and damson plum juiciness combine with the fleshy concentration expected of good red from the Great Southern region to make this an irresistible buy at the price.
