Tasting Notes
The 2019 Jacks Falls Pinot Noir reveals rich perfume notes of dark cherry, lavender and spice. The textured palate offers flavours of rich spiced cherry integrated with savoury oak characteristics.
The 2020 Jacks Falls Pinot Noir reveals perfume notes of dark cherry, crushed violets and clove from the Abel clone while the Pommard clone provided great structure and length.
The 2021 Running Creek Pinot Noir offers aromas of all spice and cherries. Rhubarb, cherry and mixed spices dominate the palate along with fine tannins.
Vinification
The 2019, 2020 Jacks Falls Pinot Noir and 2021 Running Creek Pinot Noir. Abel and Pommard clones of Pinot Noir grapes were hand-selected and gently destemmed without crushing into open-top fermenters. The skins were gently pressed and the wine racked to French barriques for maturation on lees with minimal handling.
Vintage
