Trius Reserve Pinot Noir 2019 VQA

WINE MAKING
Harvested September 29 to October 4 from estate owned vineyards within the sub-appellation of Four Mile Creek. Our Pinot Noir underwent traditional red wine making and was aged in older barriques and puncheons for 10 months (100% French oak). All wines received a full malolactic fermentation.

FLAVOUR PROFILE
A ruby red in colour with a bouquet of cherry, earth, dried mushroom, and subtle oak. An elegant, light to medium bodied red wine. This Pinot Noir has soft drying tannins and balancing acidity. Flavours of cherry, earth, and spiced oak caress the palate. Notes of red berry tea, pomegranate, spice, earth, and oak linger on the finish.
