Phelps Creek “Le Petit” Pinot Noir 2022

This 100% Estate grown Pinot Noir invokes the crunchy, fresh fruit texture of Beaujolais. To create this seasonal release, we incorporate whole-cluster, carbonic maceration. The method consists of laying whole grape clusters on top of dry ice before sealing off the container, producing an anaerobic environment. Fermentation begins within the berry itself, resulting in a wine with fresh, crisp texture and low-tannins. Scents of strawberry and spice lace the nose.The distinctive Pinot Noir soon becomes the favorite red wine as the season gets warmer. When temperatures rise outside, serve lightly chilled. Perfect al fresco with anything grilled.
