Greystone Norwester Pinot Noir 2020

Greystone is 100% certified organic with BioGro. Crop management is done meticulously by hand without herbicides, insecticides or systemic fungicides, using organic methods and biodynamic soil management to proactively promote soil and vine health. It's a hands-on approach that means being intimately connected to the blocks, walking the rows and being attuned to subtle changes in the soil, vines and grapes. It's labour intensive, but it's also how you make truly remarkable wine. For us, it's a labour we love. At harvest we handpick the bunches and bottle unfiltered whenever possible. Bottling unfined and unfiltered reveals more layers and complexity; it's like listening to your favourite album on vinyl and hearing richer, more nuanced tones. It's wine for slowing down and savouring.

We allowed the natural process of wild fermentation to take the grapes through to young wine before a gentle pressing to French oak barrels for 10 months ageing. The natural softening that takes place in barrel brings a soft and approachable texture to the wine. Nose of bright cherries, spice and a hint of smoky oak. The palate is warm and inviting showing luscious red berry flavours, velvety texture and an elegant fresh finish.
