ZILZIE VICTORIA

2023 VICTORIA

PINOT NOIR

TASTING NOTES

Striking aromas and flavors with just 1/4 of the oak compared to our other reds. It stands out for its charming red berry fruit character, a touch of spice, and velvety soft tannins.

COLOR

Ruby red

AROMA

Spice, cherry and strawberry with subtle oak undertones

PALATE

Juicy cherry, rhubarb and spice with soft tannins and a lingering finish

WINEMAKER NOTES

Selected Pinot Noir batches from our own vineyards and some from long-term growing partners across Central Victoria were cold-soaked for 2 days to draw out desired flavors and aromas while minimizing harsh tannins, then skin-fermented for 5-7 days. Post-fermentation, the wine was gently pressed, with a small portion aged on medium toast French oak for a softly rounded, subtly oaked profile.

food match

Roast chicken with herbed potatoes and glazed carrots, or spaghetti with a rich tomato and basil marinara sauce, topped with freshly grated Parmesan cheese
