Flagstone Winery
Flagstone is a winemaker-driven wine business, rather than a marketing-led business. This means we first do what is right for the grapes and the wine and only then worry about how to sell the gorgeous stuff. More than most, we are totally committed to making honest, real wine that is an authentic reflection of its provenance, even if this means taking the hard path. We believe that this is the only sustainable, honourable way. Take time to discover our wines – We are all born creative. We have been sourcing grapes from our five core vineyards since 2003. Viticultural strategies are specifically tailored to individual varieties and vineyard parameters. The natural environment in which the vines grow and bear fruit play a huge role in the style and quality of the resultant wine and we go to great lengths to study and know everything we can about that environment. This includes careful soil analysis and an on-going study of climate parameters.
Description
The 2021 Flagstone Fiona Pinot Noir presents a solid garnet color with rosy edges. The nose offers an explosion of mulberry, thyme, and violets, surrounded by smoky and earthy richness. On the palate, layers of plum, Chanterelle mushrooms, and dark chocolate fill the mouth, showcasing tremendous complexity. The finish is lingering and sumptuous.
Food Pairing
Serve this wine at 13°-15°C with fish, especially grilled salmon and seared tuna. It pairs perfectly with coq au vin and game bird dishes. It also complements everyday dishes such as cottage pie and meatloaf, duck in fruity sauces, charcuterie or cold, sliced meat, and vegetarian dishes based on mushrooms.
