'Barbara' 2020 Country Blend Pinot Noir (1.5L MAGNUM)

Tobacco, floral and elegant. 

This Pinot Noir is a unique blend of grapes from three different countries giving an elegant finish with notes of spices, florals and tobacco. Barbara is a super unique and perfectly balanced wine which is why we bottled her in magnum only. This wine showcases some of the real benefits of innovation and open mindedness in our approach. This is a wine that shows that the some of the parts are often more than the individual parts. Unique and special.
