"The Delta philosophy is to produce Pinot Noir with,
vibrant fruit, good tannin structure, excellent acidity
and well integrated subtle oak.”
To produce Pinot Noir with vibrant fruit, good tannin structure, excellent acidity and well integrated subtle oak.
Key Practices adopted:
- Specially selected clay soil site rising to 170 metres planted with all the latest Pinot Noir clones
- Low yields ensure vibrant fruit flavours
- Hand crafted Pinot Noir winemaking techniques using manual pigeage
- Use of open top fermenters to reduce the alcohol level in the final wines
- Low usage of new oak, which is lightly toasted, in order to enhance the delicate varietal expression
