Vinification details

This unique Blanc de Noir was made from 100% Pinot noir grapes, grown on the family owned vineyard. Ripe hand picked fruit was harvested between 14th March & 19th April 2023 and gentle winemaking followed to create a wonderfully balanced wine. The elegant champagne colour resulted from minimal skin contact prior to a gentle whole bunch press. The juice was fermented in stainless steel to retain the varietal and fruit characteristics.

Recipe idea

Pear, prosciutto and parmesan canapés

These delicious morsels are quick and easy to make – perfect for pre-dinner drinks.

Makes 16
8 slices of prosciutto
2 large firm fresh pears, any variety
Small block of fresh parmesan cheese
Chilli-infused extra virgin olive oil for drizzling

Method
Cut each slice of prosciutto in half lengthways. Slice each pear into even quarters, removing core. Halve each quarter again so that you get 8 even slices from each pear. Use a vegetable peeler to carve off a couple of slices of parmesan cheese, around the same length as each pear slice.

To assemble, place a slice of pear and couple of thin parmesan slices on the end of each piece of prosciutto, and roll up. Place on a small platter and drizzle with a little chilli-infused extra virgin olive oil. Serve with a chilled glass of Wooing Tree Blondie.
