Vin Gris 2003

Felton Road, tasting note (feltonroad.com – produktside feltonroad.com, hentet 2026-10-19): 2003 Felton Road Vin Gris – område: Bannockburn (Central Otago); drue: Pinot Noir. Producentens noter (engelsk): Vintage & vinification: Vin Gris (vahn gree) is made from free-run Pinot Noir juice and is only produced in certain vintages. The juice is ‘bled’ from the Pinot Noir fermenter immediately following destemming in order to concentrate the remaining fruit. This results in the very pale salmon/copper colour. Fermentation and malolactic in older barrels builds palate weight and complexity. Bouquet & Palate Strawberry aromas combined with a nutty toastiness remind one of aged Blanc de Noir Champagne. Very pale salmon and copper in colour with a rich mouthfeel and dry finish makes this an intriguing and complex wine. A unique and interesting style of wine, similar to a pale dry rose.
