Creation Pinot Noir 2017

Walker Bay and the Hemel-en-Aarde valley nearby the whale-watching town of Hermanus, is a relatively recent addition to South Africa’s exciting wine topography, with great potential for cooler climate styles not commonly found elsewhere in the country

A beautiful violet-coloured wine, with aroma or rasberry and spices. Perfect expression of this region, with a silky mouth sensation, flavour of red berries, and deliciously smooth tannin structure. Grapes fermented with the skins, undergoing malolactic fermentation during 10 month maturation in 25% new, 75% 2nd use or 3rd use barrels, lightly filtered before bottling.
