2022 Ten Minutes by Tractor Wallis Pinot Noir 750ml

Vintage The 2022 season started with a very wet and variable spring before and during flowering, resulting in small bunches and berries and reduced yields across most sites. However, the exceptional summer and autumn months that followed provided perfect ripening conditions, resulting in great concentration, colour and striking flavours across all varieties. Winemaking Fruit was hand-sorted by our winery team. Each parcel was cold soaked before a wild yeast fermentation, 16-20 days on skins in a combination of concrete and stainless-steel fermenters. Pressed off into new and older oak in both barrique and puncheon oak formats. Natural malolactic fermentation. Tasting Notes Red cherry, plum and rose petal nuances are the signature beginnings of this delightful Main Ridge Pinot Noir. The wine has great depth and presence from the start, the cheery fruit has a raspberry cola edge highlighted by a soft velvety texture and chewy mineral tannins with a peak of char. A dark, beautifully structured wine that reflects the season and its terroir.
