COAL PIT TIWHA PINOT NOIR 2018/2019

Nose: Dark cherry aromatics with savoury cocoa undertones, underpinned with delicate notes of dried herbs

Palate: Structured tannins extend the length of the palate, signifying great age ability for this wine. An elegant yet powerful Pinot Noir, where depth of fruit and tannin abound, balanced with the delightful acidity that the Coal Pit site is known for

Food Pairing: Enjoy with a wide range of food, however this wine matches exceptionally well with game, mushroom and truffle dishes. A broad array of spices can be successfully paired to the wine’s flavours - get creative and best of all, enjoy with good company
