This wine combines classic “P(inot)-funk” flavours of cherry, mulberry, and raspberry with candy-cane beets, earth, leaves and stone. Made in a style that is slightly more approachable than our single-vineyard Pinots, it still shows incredible depth and complexity. The palate in particular shows good fullness, density and silkiness and “Pinot-city” in the mouth with kirsch married to sugar beet wrapped in fresh basil smashed over limestones! Traces of spice lift the back end of the wonderfully long finish. The 2024 needs a lot of air, so give it a good decant before enjoying. This wine will age gracefully for 5-7 years.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe 2024 growing season was warm, with a dry, temperate and long fall resulting in grapes of elegance and power, that are fully ripe in flavour with excellent acidity. This wine is a blend of 4 different vineyards from across Niagara, although the majority is from 777 clone from Senchuk Vineyard. They were hand-picked and hand-sort on September 19th (Bock), September 21st (Hemeris), and September 22nd (Senchuk and Grimsby Hillside). Each vineyard was fermented separately, with 15% whole-cluster fruit and 85% de-stemmed. They were left to cold soak for 2 to 3 days before a spontaneous ferment started, followed by punch-downs by hand twice a day for 3 weeks. Once fermentation was finished, the wine remained on skins for 3-5 days before being gently pressed. It was then transferred to French oak barrels (20% new, 20% 1-year-old, 60% older) and aged for 14 months. The 2024 Pinot Noir was bottled in February 2026.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"gp-tab-item gp-child-item-g1CHxy33q4\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv data-keep-class=\"true\" class=\"gJGhK_uhl4 metafield_text\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"gp-tab-item gp-child-item-g1CHxy33q4\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv id=\"gegMpkfHH5\" data-id=\"gegMpkfHH5\" class=\"gegMpkfHH5 gp-mx-auto gp-mb-0 gp-grid gp-max-w-full gp-gap-y-0 gp-transition-colors gp-duration-200 gp-ease-in-out [\u0026amp;_*]:gp-max-w-full gp-grid-rows-[1fr]\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv label=\"Block\" type=\"component\" class=\"gY61OQRFs6 gp-relative gp-flex gp-flex-col\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv data-keep-class=\"true\" class=\"gxxG-grWzR metafield_text\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv label=\"Block\" type=\"component\" class=\"gJdKB6dtYp gp-relative gp-flex gp-flex-col\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv data-keep-class=\"true\" class=\"gZMUS_Qw5l metafield_text\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/section\u003e","brand":"Leaning Post Wines","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47657936191700,"sku":"WINLEA6852","price":34.2,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/1381\/1668\/files\/pinot-noir-niagara-2024-leaning-post-wines.webp?v=1773769486","url":"https:\/\/mywinecanada.com\/products\/pinot-noir-2024-leaning-post-wines","provider":"My Wine Canada","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
