About
Cirrus Wines, named after the wispy atmospheric clouds, are wines made with fruit from high altitude vineyards in the Witzenberg mountains on the Ceres Plateau. The Cirrus Pinot Noir 2022 displays bright, vibrant fruit on the nose, showing ripe red cherries, cranberry and candyfloss with a hint of sweet mint and earthy undertones of compost. More juicy red fruit on the palate with flavours of berry iced tea, vanilla, and a hint of floral perfume. Soft and subtle tannins with zesty acidity and fresh cranberry note on the finish.
