Thorne & Daughter Copper Pot Pinot Noir 2023 750ml

Thorne & Daughters initially crafted their Copper Pot Pinot Noir exclusively for Cleopatra Mountain Farmhouse in the KZN Drakensberg. Today, the wine maintains its high standards while evolving in complexity. The 2023 Pinot Noir sources grapes from five vineyards in the Hemel-en-Aarde Ridge and Overberg appellations. Hand-harvested in small batches, the grapes are fermented in stainless steel with a maceration period of 40-45 days to extract intricate tannins. The wine undergoes spontaneous malolactic fermentation and matures in old French oak barrels for nine months. **Tasting Notes:** - **Nose:** Perfumed with mulberries, pomegranate, grapefruit, and herbal nuances. - **Palate:** Rich and intricate, blending savoury wood spice with plums, red currants, and blood orange. - **Finish:** Soft, supple tannins and refreshing acidity.
