2020 Whimsy Clone 115 Pinot Noir

2020 Whimsy Clone 115 Pinot Noir

Clone 115 is from Dijon, France, the heart of Burgundy. The best thing about getting each of these Pinots is to experience the crescendo of aromas and flavours as you shift from the Triomphe to this SIP Club selection. We only made 40 cases of this wine and you'll understand that this is a unique expression of our organic Pinot Noirs. It bursts with cherry flavours and transitions to an exotic combination of red fruits - cherry, pomegranate, ripe plums. This is a knock out! I would love to pair this with poultry and Fall vegetables but I'm not sure it's going to make it to dinner. Cellar for 10+ years.

Wine Profile
Tasting Notes
Violets, allspice, dark cherries and clove lead to a rich palate of fresh fruits and spices. The smaller berries produced with clone 115 brings about an intensity to this wine because of the higher skin to juice ratio. A clone, that will usually bring backbone to a blend of Pinot Noir, shines on its own here.
Winemaker Notes
Grapes were hand-picked and hand-sorted across a shaker table. Fruit was then destemmed on top of a 30% whole cluster component and allowed to undergo wild fermentation. After 17 days of maceration, the wine was pressed off of the skins and transferred to French oak barrels for 10 months of aging. The two best barrels (one new and one used) from the parcel of clone 115 were selected to make this special SIP Club wine.
