Anthem Discover Pinot Noir 2006

Anthem777      Nuova Zelanda

“With lifted aromas of florals, savoury spice and berry fruit, this wine is enticing and immediately approachable with a concentrated palate and lingering silky texture”.

The ripe fruit was handpicked and vinted in small batches using traditional methods. During fermentation, gentle plunging of up to 3 times per day ensured the desired extraction of colour, structure and aroma compounds. Ferments peaked at above 300C. Following ferment dryness there was a period of up to 10 days post ferment maceration, and the wine was then drained to French oak barriques (30% new) for 10 months. Malolactic fermentation concluded in the spring and the wine was blended, receiving one gentle filtration before bottling in March 2007.
