Richard Kershaw Wines

An intensely flavoured Pinot is full of personality. This wine puts many more expensive Pinots and classic Burgundies to shame! Aromas of wild strawberries and undergrowth lead to a palate with complex fruit and savoury flavours. After a three-day maceration in open-top fermenters, fermentation began spontaneously and a gentle délestage program was carried out. The wine was matured in a combination of 50% used French oak barrels and 50% “breathable eggs.”
