Closson Chase is one of the first wineries in Prince Edward County and their premium Pinot Noir wines – like this one – have put this growing wine region on the world wine map. Our Savvy Sommeliers always recommend to visit the ‘purple barn’ where Closson Chase is located and sample their top notch wines.
Sourced entirely from our South Clos vineyard. Destemmed with no crushing and cold soaked for 3-5 days. Fermented in 60hL oak tonneau then aged for 18 months in French oak barrels, 20% new. Full malolactic fermentation in barrel.
Wine Reviews: “It’s so well balanced and succulent, with that hallmark PEC cool, stony character, very fine, silky tannins and a structure based firmly on acids, comfortably ripe as they are… A finely-hewn and stylish wine all in all.” -John Szabo, Master Sommelier (MS)
“This lovely pinot is from the oldest vines on the property, now approaching 25 years, and there is an extra measure of weight and fruit depth, comparing to the Churchside and Vineyard bottlings.” – David Lawrason
