Evolution Winery 1276 Precoce Pinot Noir
Tasting Note
A good depth of garnet and a slight tone of terracotta in colour. Black cherry and sweet spice with hints of chocolate and smoke on the nose. A rich and almost full-bodied palate with silky tannins from time in barrel. Dark fruits, clove and vanilla spice are followed by earthy forest floor undertones on the finish.
Blended by our new winemaker, Laurence Cocking, from a selection of tanks and barrels of varying size and age, including the distinctive first crop of our new Pinot Noir Precoce vineyard block. A medium to full bodied red wine with brooding dark fruits and earthiness, well integrated oak, and delicate tannins.
Producer
In 1276, the Bishop of Hereford’s ‘Red Book’ recorded the planting of vines on the south-facing slopes of Ledbury, Herefordshire. These early ecclesiastical vineyards marked the beginning of a long and remarkable connection between this land and the craft of winemaking.
Nearly 800 years later, we have reintroduced vines on these very slopes - reviving an old tradition with a modern, visionary approach. Nurtured by the same unique microclimate, our vines grow where history runs deep, and where innovation leads the way.
At The Evolution Winery, our land is more than soil, it's the soul of our craft. Nestled in Herefordshire's rolling hills, our 25-acre vineyard is a testament to our commitment to sustainability and excellence.
Our land doesn't just grow grapes; it nurtures a vision where every vine tells a story of responsibility, community, and passion for the planet.
Embracing the Triple Bottom Line philosophy of People, Planet, and Profit, and as proud members of Sustainable Wines of Great Britain, we continually seek innovative ways to minimise our impact, from eco-conscious packaging to energy-efficient winery designs.
