Lightfoot & Sons Renegade Pinot Noir 2017
Part of an experimental series of wines to push Lightfoot & Sons creativity and understanding as winemakers and grape growers. The premise for the “Renegade” was to let nature take its course with a bare minimum of winemaker intervention. 100% whole-bunch fermented, 100% indigenous yeast, no plunging or pumpovers, and foot stomped just once. Lightfoot & Sons Renegade Pinot Noir 2017 is an uncompromising example of wild fermentation and wholebunch character. Aromatic, complex, intense, textural and a little bit wild.
Myrtle Point Vineyard is in the Gippsland Lakes District. Located in far eastern Victoria, between the Great Dividing Range and Bass Straight, the Gippsland Lakes District enjoys a cool, semi-maritime climate. Soil structure of the Myrtle Point vineyard is Terra Rosa over limestone.
