Newton Johnson Felicite Pinot Noir 2020

The path in discovering Pinot Noir wines can be a very rewarding experience, some say the ultimate. The fragrant fruit of Pinot Noir is ever distinct; and the silky, elegant texture is what seduces you in to what may be called the ‘Queen of wines’.

We believe that our Felicité Pinot Noir is a 1st step in this discovery. Surprisingly affordable, this wine displays bright and uncomplicated Pinot fruit.

Compelling aromas of an array of vivid red berries, juxtaposed with structured dark fruits. Ignited with lively spiced notes and assorted with earthy nuances. The palate is structured with chewy, fine tannin around a core of deeply flavoured fruit.

"A captivating, pure Pinot Noir with soft, rounded, ripe dark-cherry fruits, a touch of spice and gentle tannins. It displays a lovely ripeness without ever seeming in the least bit clumsy. Try it with roast game birds, duck or a mushroom risotto."
