The Story
The Toolangi Pinot was hand harvested from Toolangi's 2001 plantings (MV6 clone grapes on the bottom of E Block), and naturally fermented as whole berries with minimal plunging for 12 days. It was pressed to French oak (10% new) for 10 months. Bottled unfined and unfiltered.
Again this is absolutely outstanding value. It's a bright, juby, perfumed and juicy Pinot redolent of both a fine vintage and the new set of eyes that Kaspar Hermann has bought to the Toolangi vineyard.
