Winemaking Notes
The YASUHIRO is a limited release Pinot Noir crafted from our Clone 5 block of premium fruit parcels that were hand-picked between 16 and 31 March 2018.
The fruit was destemmed into open top fermenters before being inoculated with selected wine yeasts to carry out the fermentation.
The wine was aged in French oak barriques for 12 months, of which 33% was new oak.
Three barrels were then hand selected to make this special YASUHIRO Pinot Noir which is only released on selected vintages.
Enjoy this wine now or cellar for up to 10 years.
