Information about "Cirrus Pinot Noir 2022"

Cirrus Wines are named after the ethereal clouds that drift above the high-altitude vineyards of the Witzenberg mountains on the Ceres Plateau. Cirrus Pinot Noir 2022 is the third vintage crafted from this exceptional vineyard located 1026 meters above sea level. Here, temperate summers, snowy winters, and intense sunlight create an environment that yields a distinctive South African Pinot Noir.

This wine captivates with vivacious aromas of ripe red cherries, cranberry, lingonberry, and a whisper of cotton candy, enriched by hints of sweet mint and earthy vanilla undertones. The palate is a gentle dance of soft, subtle tannins complemented by brisk acidity and a fresh, floral berry finish.

Treatment in the cellar

Ungefähr 70% der Früchte werden als ganze Beeren vergoren, die die restlichen 30 % werden am Bund vergoren. Die ganzen Beeren bewahren die reinen Fruchtaromen und die Intensität, während die ganzen Trauben zur schonenden Extraktion der Tannine beitragen. Die Reifung erfolgt in 500l-Fässern aus französischer Eiche für 14 Monate, was dem Wein Struktur, Komplexität und Alterungsfähigkeit verleiht.
