Winemaker Notes Bright deep garnet in colour; intense aromas of lifted raspberry, cherry liqueur fruits mixed with toasty charry oak over a brooding layer of smoked meats. Juicy dark cherries are complemented with supple mouth filling tannins. A savoury backbone and a charry oak edge underlie a tightly structured wine which finishes long and clean. Drink now or in 3-5 years Vineyards The year 2001 saw two new clones of pinot noir come on stream adding to the already mature 'Droopy' clone at Fonty's Pool Vineyard. All the clones are grown on ironstone gravelly loams associated with the native marri and jarrah eucalypts . The original pinot noir vines were planted in 1989, whilst the two new clones were planted in 1997 and 1999 with all vines spaced at 3.0 x 1.5 metres and either spur or cane pruned on a bilateral cordon. Shoots are trained vertically between wires on a 1.8 m trellis. Extensive hand positioning of shoots, selective leaf removal on the eastern aspect of rows and bunch thinning is practiced. The deep soils require irrigation to be used only sparingly to encourage balanced vine growth and physiological development. (12 x 75 cl)

It has a very fine mousse and intense, fresh fruit aromas, followed by a delicious, fruity and very approachable palate. "Canard-Duchene is one of my favourites. It has a light, vivacious fruit, bready and beautifully balanced." David Courtenay, Bath Evening Chronicle. (6 x 1.5 Litres)

Alphonse Mellot LE DEMOISELLE Pinot Noir Sancerre Rouge
Description: At the beginning of the nineteenth century, Alphonse Mellot founded a tavern in Sancerre where one could savour the local wines and so began a flourishing trade that was to continue. In 1881 he was granted a licence to ship his wine throughout France and all over the World. This marked the beginning of a pacific conquest which has been pursued and developed by the family business from father to son ever since, with the eldest son continuing to bear the name of the Founder Alphonse. Today, the old winemaking tradition is perpetuated by Alphonse Mellot, father and son, the 18th and 19th to bear the name. La Demoiselle has been produced for 52 years on a 1 hectare parcel of land, on the flinty, clay soil, right on the Sancerre Peak, at the spot on the east side called La Demoiselle. Great care is taken with this wine starting with hand harvesting where the grapes are picked and placed in small 25 kg boxes. Thanks to a vibrating table followed by a sorting table all grapes have been sorted, stemmed and transported into the wine vats by conveyor belt. It is fermented in 60 hl truncated wooden vats and aged in new casks for 14 months on average. This Pinot Noir is a firm ruby colour with a nose that expresses the soil. Here the flinty clay is shown in hints of smoked food and cherries in kirsch, all blended in extremely silky tannins. (12 x 75 cl)
