2012 Winderlea Legacy Pinot Noir
182 cases produced
Sourced from the oldest vines on our estate vineyard, planted between 1974 and 1976 the Legacy is our most precious wine. Delicately garnet colored, the Legacy hits you with roses, strawberries, cherries, and a fine layer of cedar. As you drink you are enticed by the introduction of bright yet ripe cherries, cranberries, red plums, mango, dried apricot, and the mellowest Meyer lemon nose. This is a layered wine- nothing hits you overtly. It finishes elegantly and almost silky.
