Production

The Earthscape label is named according to the lie of the land on which Pyren is planted, from the soil structure in its quartz laden mass, to the rolling valleys, and skyward facing peaks. This release has been harvested in three parts. Uncertain intention , with fortuitous outcomes! Wild yeast fermentation, and rested in used French oak for over 12 months.

Tasting notes

Immediately the nose has that lovely aromatic bloody note. That ferrous thing follows through on the palate with bloody, iron flavour. The stemsy whole bunch ferment give this Malbec a leafy lift which when married with the aromatics give you a wine of pure varietal joy.

Food match

Seared or carpaccio of Tuna. Rare T-Bone and the best Mac and Cheese you can make.
