Tête de Cuvée Pinot Noir 2021

Bouchard Finlayson, teknisk ark/fact sheet (hentet 18. okt. 2026): 2021 Bouchard Finlayson Tête de Cuvée Pinot Noir – område: Hemel-en-Aarde Valley; 100% Pinot Noir; alkohol 13.2%. Producentens noter (engelsk): Vinifikation: A Tête de Cuvée wine is not presented at every vintage – only when the occasionally precarious Hemel-en-Aarde climate allows for perfect Pinot Noir ripening conditions. This bottling is regarded as the most promising wine from the cellar and carries the Bouchard Finlayson flag. The majority of grapes supplied for this cuvee is from the oldest vines on the property, with the average vine age exceeding 22years. The winemaker selects individual barrels to compile the chosen components – in this instance only eight, of which four were new oak. Bottled in July 2022. Producentens noter (engelsk): Smagsnote: Medium-deep garnet colour. Aromatically abundant black cherry, rose and strawberry with delicate cinnamon and essential oil adding more nuances. Beautifully integrated oak spice underscores a savoury and classically dense texture. Regal and elegant – builds to lasting complex finish. Best from 2024 through 2034.
