"From Misty Cove's flagship Fareham Lane vineyard. Quite a fruit-bomb style with dark-fleshed plum, dark cherry, vanilla and a strong spicy oak influence. An appealing wine that is ready to drink now" Bob Campbell, Master of Wine, Real Review, Jan 2022

Misty Cove’s Landmark Pinot Noir is deeply influenced by old world winemaking techniques. Lovingly handcrafted in small batch quantities, they crafted this wine to reflect the “Landmark” – the attributes and characteristics of the Fareham Lane vineyard from which it originated.

The parcels selected were a combination of Clone 10/5, 667 & 777. These were hand harvested and then gently processed. The individual batches that make up this wine were treated traditionally, allowing the natural fruit concentration and ripe tannin structure to shine. After 10 months of maturation in 100% French oak barriques: 35% new, 30% 1-year-old with the balance 2-year-old. Only selected barrels were chosen for this gorgeously divine and complex blend.
