Note di degustazione
From McCreanor vineyard with 27-year-old vines on slightly heavier soils and all clone AM 10/5. Hand harvested, fermented with ambient yeast. Total maceration time c 17 days with hand-plunging in open-top wooden fermenters. Aged in French oak for 18 months, 40% new. TA 5 g/l, pH 3.58. Unfined and unfiltered. Gentle red-fruit aroma with an attractive dusty overlay. The initial sweetness to the aroma is counterbalanced by intensely savoury, rocky palate. Bone dry but surprisingly succulent. Super-fine texture, the focus of this wine. (JH)

Medium ruby-purple colored, the 2013 Pahi Pinot Noir is scented of red and black plums, black cherries and black tea with nuances of mossy tree bark. Medium-bodied, it has a solid backbone of chewy tannins supporting the expressive red and black berry flavors, finishing long and earthy.
