There is a reason why Pinot Noir is the Holy Grail of winemaking as it is the most challenging varietal to produce and offers only a fine line between good and great. With over 40 years of winemaking experience, winemaker John Belsham has learned how to coax the very best from this fickle mistress; knowing where to push boundaries and knowing when to stop.
The wine is gently handled throughout the entire winemaking process. The Icon Pinot Noir naturally settled on its own, with brilliant clarity, and required no fining. It is naturally vegan.
Cellar aged before release, the Le Renard Pinot Noir is layered with finesse and powerful elegance and will be appreciated by anyone who loves great Pinot Noir and Burgundian-styled wines.
One bottle of the Foxes Island Icon Le Renard Pinot Noir 2012 is presented in a wood box.
Each bottle is signed by the winemaker, John Belsham.
The wood box is constructed of sustainably farmed, New Zealand timber.
