Vintage 2022
This Pinot Noir exudes aromas of, red cherry, freshly picked plum and hints of mocha. The palate is rich and concentrated; red fruits and intriguing sweet baking spices are balanced with fine grain tannins and a long finish.
Gissen Unchartered Pinot Noir is from a blend of outstanding vineyard sites located across the Wairau and Awatere sub-regions of Marlborough. Vineyards chosen all have heavy soil which gives subtle flint character and more texture in the wine. The fruit was picked and fermented in the winery on skins with selected yeasts for seven days followed by a further seven days maceration to enrich mouthfeel and palate weight. The wine was then pressed and then a portion matured in French oak for 9 months, using a range of coopers and toasts. This selection was to ensure the wine had subtle oak character which allowed the fruit to shine. The wine was fined and filtered for bottling.
