Pinot Noir

The red grape of Burgundy France, Pinot Noir is now finding a home in cooler growing regions around the world. Known at the ‘heartbreak grape’ Pinot Noir is very difficult to grow but it is definitely worth the effort. Pinot Noir at its best is silky, deceptively powerful and elegantly subtle. Pinot Noir is the grape French Burgundy is made with. French Burgundy is consistently the most expensive wines in the world.

Pinot Noir is a great wine for every cellar as it’s a great cross-over wine for food pairing. It will pair well with beef but because Pinot Noir wines are not super heavy they will pair well with pork and heavier fish like tuna and mahi mahi.

Cellar Craft Showcase Bella Sonoma with Crushed Grape Pack

Premium

The Sonoma Coast is California’s “hottest” Pinot Noir region because it is California’s coolest temperature wine region where soils are generally demanding with high rock, gravel and clay content. These conditions result in low crop yields and wines which are concentrated, complex and elegant with ageing and attracting a rush of new plantings within the region. The Bella Sonoma Vineyard in the south-west part of the region. This bright ruby-hued wine is medium-bodied with classic aromatics dominated by bright cherry, fresh raspberry, elegant spice and subtle notes from medium toast Hungarian oak introduced post-fermentation. The palate shows more cherry, a suggestion of black fruits and licorice with a balance of vibrant coastal acidity and fine tannins. Sensory refinement and elegance will begin to develop after 12 months and should continue through the third or forth years of cellaring to become a very special Pinot.
