Anthony Hamilton Russell established the winery in 1975, deliberately choosing one of the coolest locations in the Cape region. The soils, composed of weathered slate and clay-loam, impart a mineral character to the wines. Pinot Noir and Chardonnay are the only grape varieties – a clear decision for focus over breadth.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e In the glass, the Pinot Noir displays aromas of sour cherry and pomegranate, underpinned by smoky notes, damp forest floor, and a hint of cinnamon bark. The palate is medium-bodied with silky tannins, lively acidity, and a long, slightly earthy finish. The 1.5-liter magnum matures more slowly than the standard bottle – those with patience will be rewarded with added complexity.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eDishes:\u003c\/strong\u003e Duck breast with cherry sauce, rack of lamb with herb crust, aged Gruyère cheese\u003c\/li\u003e\u003cli\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eTemperature:\u003c\/strong\u003e 16–17 °C\u003c\/li\u003e\u003cli\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eDrinking window:\u003c\/strong\u003e now until 2030\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Hamilton Russell Vineyards","offers":[{"title":"2022","offer_id":52694996812112,"sku":"V33723","price":125.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0896\/3509\/4864\/files\/hamilton-russell-vineyards-pinot-noir-2x.webp?v=1783529789","url":"https:\/\/www.vinoscout.de\/en\/products\/hamilton-russell-vineyards-pinot-noir","provider":"Vinoscout","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
