BK Wines Skin n Bones Pinot Noir 2023
In the 2023 vintage, BK Wines crafted the Skin N Bones Pinot Noir from the Adelaide Hills, defying the initial concerns about ripening amidst a challenging season. Despite worries about vine shutdowns and autumn's onset, the resulting wine belies its tumultuous origins.
Upon pouring a glass, one is greeted by classic Burgundian aromas of barns and hay bales, setting the stage for a delightful tasting experience. The palate offers a round and generous profile, reminiscent of cherry juice, with a jubilant start that gradually tightens into an elegantly dry finish.
This Pinot Noir is a blend of four clones, primarily MV6, and underwent a 30-day skin contact period before maturing in 10% new French oak for 10 months. The wine's ability to seamlessly transition from a nail-biting start to a harmonious and pleasurable sip speaks to BK Wines' mastery in winemaking and their commitment to quality.
