About the wine
If a Pinot Noir aficionado drew up their dream drop, it might taste something like this...
- Derek saw his passions for traditional winemaking and unique vineyards seamlessly combine whilst making this glorious Pinot Noir. Grown from the prestigious Anderson Valley region's rich coastal soil and aged in French and Hungarian barrels, Derek was in his element.
- The joy and pride Derek has worked into this nuanced and complex wine is present in every drop. It has all the telltale brightness and structure of a coastal Pinot Noir, bound to have any seasoned enthusiasts grinning from ear to ear.
- Boasting thoroughly tasty flavours of fresh summer strawberries, raspberries and pomegranate, all underlined by blood orange acidity and cinnamon spiced kicks. A fruity red firecracker!

My second bottle and it was even better than the first! Beautiful lighter PN with the taste of succulent berries, it was an absolute delight. What an experience and I’m so glad that I have one more bottle to enjoy slowly over a few days. Here’s to the next vintage!
