Burn Cottage "Sauvage Vineyard" Pinot Noir
This is a Single Vineyard wine from the 20 year old Sauvage Vineyard in Bannockburn. The vineyard itself is located under hills once prized for gold in this region, now cloaked in wild thyme and rosehip. The land below is widely sought after for Pinot Noir and the foothills are framed with vines. Lifted notes of bright red and blue fruits, violets and earthy spice, along with aniseed and darker herbals. The textural palate is elegant with a supple mouthfeel and structural tannins. This wine shows layers and expression benefiting from some time in the glass. Cellaring to 10-12 years.
