ageing : It has a rich core and promises added dimensions over a period of ageing!
in the vineyard : A great vintage from an even year. For some unbeknown reason our best vintages for Galpin Peak Pinot Noir production over the last twenty years, have always landed on uneven vintages. Year 2010 is a better of a wine, big and full flavoured.
in the cellar : Some years ago I met up with Joseph Henriot, owner of the Burgundian Negotiant Bouchard Pere et Fils. In discussion over Pinot noir he made the statement that the personality of Pinot noir is such that it offers a great deal of variation from vintage to vintage. Fortunately our climate of generous sunshine flavours a predominantly constant grape quality result. But some vintages have more to offer than others!
