PHI Pinot Noir 2011

Stephen Shelmerdine never applies any pressure on his Pinot vines to perform. Handling fruit and wine by gravity, knowing when not to interfere, indigenous yeasts and a subdued use of oak, all help to render the style. The challenge is to preserve aromas and to let the palate form by itself. A pure, small bath Pinot wine, elegance and finesse are the defining characters, matched by fine texture and good structure. The result is subtlety over sunshine, terroir over intervention and delicacy over extraction, fashioned to be beautiful to drink.

The philosophy is to preserve aroma and allow the wine to express the natural characteristics of the vineyard site. Pinot Noir clone MV6 vines are cane pruned to twenty five buds and shoot thinned at the 10cm or 15cm stage to yield eighteen 80gm bunches each. When optimum flavour is achieved the fruit is hand harvested, hand sorted and destemmed into six tonnes open fermenters. Natural vinification ensues as the cap recieves an occasional plunge toward the end of fermentation. After a fortnight or more on skins the wine is pressed, settled overnight and gravity filled to French casks where it matures peacefully for up to a year. The wine is then racked by gravity and filled to bottle without fining or filtration.

Full ruby colour. Intense Pinot nose with purity and fragrance, alluring wild red fruit aromatics. Complex varietal characters coalesce on a palate of superb concentration, a Pinot palate of texture, plumpness and softness. Elegant, minerally and fine, a finish of extended fruit, lingering silky tannins and the piquant sweetness of freshly pitted cherry.
