Winemakers Notes
Composition: 70 % Pinot Noir, 30 % Pinot Gris
An enchanting, fruity-floral nose offers rhubarb, cantaloupe, watermelon, lavender and cherry blossom. It’s bright and rich in the mouth and flavoured of strawberry, cranberry, crab apple, gooseberry and ruby grapefruit, leaving a lengthy, refreshing, lemon-citrusy finish.
Estate-grown grapes were hand-picked at cool daybreak temperatures on September 14th and 23rd, as grape sugars averaged 21.3 ° Brix.
This vintage introduces a second variety, pinot gris, whose similarity in balance and texture make it a natural companion to pinot noir. The grapes were pressed directly after picking, after which, the juice was chilled in a horizontal “dairy tank” prior to cool fermentation in stainless steel. The new Vivant was bottled in December 2020.
