  2018 South Coast Pinot Noir, Lismore

  £3800

  An elegant Pinot Noir delivering a complex bouquet of crushed rose petals, wild jasmine and fresh French herbs. The palate shows beautiful purity with layered red fruits, cranberry, raspberry, silky tannins and a long, savoury finish.

  This wine was made from Pinot Noir from 2 regions, 70% of the grapes came from Stanford, Walker Bay and 30% from Elgin, both in the cool climate region Cape South Coast. The vines are all Burgundian, clone 115. The Stanford vineyard is close to the southernmost tip of Africa and is located in one of South Africa’s coolest wine-producing regions. The maritime vineyard enjoys a long ripening season, because of the strong cooling winds that are prevalent in the summer. This microclimate is ideal for creating a long hang time, concentrating the flavours in the berries while retaining natural acidity levels. Elgin is situated at 400 metres above sea level and ripens even later than the coastal vineyard. The vines here, planted in shale and clay soils, produce fleshier fruit, adding weight to the blend.

  Zalto Burgundy Glass

  £4000

  This is a must-have glass for any serious wine drinker and without doubt our favourite glass here at Wine Republic.  It really excels with expressive, perfumed wines such as Pinot Noir and Nebbiolo but we also think it is a brilliant glass for Chardonnay and Viognier.

  The Zalto Burgundy glass is the widest of all of the Zalto glasses and in turn, has the largest surface area thus allowing for rapid aeration.  The shape of the bowl is the key to making this glass world-leading, it allows those delicate flavours and aromas to be maximised. The narrow rim and straight edges hold these aromas within the glass allowing for maximum appreciation of the aromas of your chosen wine.   Over the years of using this glass, we have noticed it accentuates spice, berry and floral characteristics of the wine.
