This is a refined and elegant rosé with subtle notes of red berry fruit and a soft creamy finish on the palate. It is made the best quality Pinot Noir grapes sourced from Essex.
In the glass it has a robust salmon pink colour.
The nose presents aromas of delicate red berry fruits, strawberries and raspberries. This is followed by red berries on the palate with good balanced acidity and structure from the red fruit combined with a mouth-watering acidity and a lingering finish. Perfect served chilled with seafood and light pasta dishes.
The grapes received minimal handling to preserve the flavours. Fermentation was in 100% stainless steel to retain the freshness. Malolactic fermentation was inhibited to promote the primary fruit character of the wine, with 6 hours of skin contact given to enhance colour extraction. The fermenation was cool with extended fine lees ageing to add structure to the mid palate and promote a rounded finish.
Pinot Noir is the holy grail grape for many winemakers, it is a difficult mistress, but when made well it shines.
Young Pinot Noir has delicious aromas of cherries, raspberries, and strawberries. With age it develops complexity and mystery. Older wines have the capacity to become a gamey style of wine, and the best examples show autumnal notes of truffles, mushrooms, and forest floor.
Devon's vineyards are situatued in the valleys and lowlands of south and east Devon. Mostly close to the rivers Exe, Teign and Dart.
The growing season is long, with sun and heat starting earlier and lasting longer than in many other English counties. This gives the grapes more time to ripen and more time to hang.
