AOW Viñero Lancefield Pinot Noir

The palate is mid-weight and fruit-forward, featuring a ferrous underlay that adds complexity. Approximately 30% whole bunch fermentation and 25% new oak were employed, contributing to its depth and structure. Viñero translates to “vigneron,” highlighting the intimate connection between grower and maker. This Pinot Noir is a testament to that relationship, offering a wine that’s both approachable now and built to age gracefully. Pair it with dishes that have an extra level of umami—think dry-aged meats, wild mushrooms, or smoked beetroot—to complement its depth and complexity
