Tolpuddle Pinot Noir 2024
Following on from a dry winter we experienced regular, well-timed rainfall throughout spring and summer. This rainfall, along with mild and sunny conditions for the remainder of the ripening season promoted strong vine growth, good flowering and bunch development. Fruit ripened slowly but evenly resulting in moderate yields with plenty of flavour. One of our best seasons on record.
Dark, brooding fruit and lifted aromas of aniseed and pepper. On the palate, concentrated fruit is framed by fine, integrated tannins that linger on the finish. There is a sense of opulence to this wine, balanced by more complex, savoury spice and the seamless acidity we have come to expect from Tolpuddle Vineyard.
All hand-picked fruit is fermented as a combination of whole berries and whole bunches, in open wooden and stainless fermenters, with gentle plunging. Aged for 10 months in French oak, of which about one third was new.
