Kershaw Wines 'Clonal Selection' Elgin Pinot Noir 2018

Made in tiny quantities, Richard Kershaw MW's wines are always in high demand.  He established Richard Kershaw Wines in 2012, specialising in the cool-climate wines of Elgin. Being one of the few MW’s to make his own wine, he uses his vast knowledge to craft stunning wines that are easily a match for some of the world’s very best wines. Grapes for the 'Clonal Selection' Pinot Noir come from 11 tiny vineyard parcels in several locations in the Elgin Valley. The grapes were hand-picked, manually sorted and destemmed before being transferred to small open-topped fermenters.  Each clone and soil type was micro vinified as a separate batch; the average comprised 39.4% in new oak; and 82.2% was aged in 228-litre barriques with 17.8% in 500-litre casks. This Pinot Noir is characterised by its purity of fruit, focus and freshness. Fine powdery tannins frame notes of black cherry, pomegranate, rose petal and raspberry on the deliciously succulent palate.

Vintage Availability

We endeavour to display accurate and current vintages on all our wines listed on the website; however, from time to time stocks of the vintage listed do become exhausted. If this is the case with your order we will always contact you to recommend another vintage of the same wine, if it is still available. If the vintage of a wine is important to you then please leave a note at checkout advising us of this. 

 

Stock Availability

As we are retail stockists, selling from our Ledston shop as well as online, it makes it difficult for us to show a 'real-time' inventory of our wines and spirits online. As such, very occasionally, a wine may be out of stock that the website has allowed you to order.

To ensure a timely delivery, we are happy to substitute your order with a similar wine of equal or higher value and at no additional cost to you!

If this is not an acceptable solution please advise us in the 'Add A Comment' section at the checkout.
