{"product_id":"2024-radford-dale-vinum-pinot-noir","title":"2024 Radford Dale Vinum Pinot Noir","description":"\u003cp\u003eThis Pinot noir comes from three Pinot Noir vineyards, on either side of Elgin. From sites in Stellenbosch \u0026amp; Botriver, we have a fleshier expression of Cape Pinot which is showing hints of a welcome darker fruit character.  The mature Stellenbosch vineyards are east facing with soils of deep and clay-rich Clovelly and rocky, free-draining granite. This vineyard is picked earlier to retain the acidity and balance. The Botriver vineyards are 18 years old, north facing, and consisting of Burgundian clone 115.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe berries were co-fermented, using natural ferments and whole berries are lifted into the tanks and use gravity to place them in uncrushed and carry out 100% whole-berry fermentation and a gentle extraction, with the berries gently basket pressed subsequently for pure and fine tannins.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTasting note: Medium ruby, with a crimson rim. Strawberry and black cherry with subtle clove notes that typify the variety. Engaging notes of fresh berries and dark plums add immediate appeal. The medium palate shines with a satin texture and beautifully refined tannin, leading to a long finish, leaving pleasant echoes of raspberry and plums on the palate.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Radford Dale","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44063785910346,"sku":"S129605241","price":19.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/2140\/3211\/files\/Screenshot2026-08-13132024_593a41d6-6811-4c27-bc2e-b92231abd2c2.png?v=1786623675","url":"https:\/\/thevineking.com\/products\/2024-radford-dale-vinum-pinot-noir","provider":"The Vineking","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
