Notes
" This wine is sourced exclusively from Stargazer’s own Palisander vineyard in the Tea Tree subregion of Coal
River Valley. Two separate parcels of Pinot Noir, planted in 2002 and 2017 respectively.
Primarily brown dermosol on Jurassic dolerite, the plant material is combination of clones, the majority of
which is G5Vl2 or Wadenswil. The 2022 also includes clones Abel, 115, 777 and MV6 from the blocks planted in
2017. It is all cane pruned and trained to a vertical shoot positioned canopy.
20% whole bunch with the remainder destemmed but not crushed. Cold soak for three days pre ferment. Post
primary ferment the must is pressed off to French oak puncheons (Francois Freres, Mercurey and Ermitage),
25% new. 8 months elevage in oak with a further 10 weeks in tank." Sam's Notes
