Carrick Estate has always been a whiz when it comes to crafting natural wines and Pinot Noir, but Billet Doux kicks it up a notch. Coined as Carrick’s ‘love letter’, it’s a true celebration of the natural elements in this wine. Simply elegant and sophisticated, Billet Doux fuses ripe fruit with earthy layers. Generous on raspberry, cherry aromas with slightly peaty, herby nuances and a delicate touch of floral at the end. Ripe flavours with fine tannins. Take this love affair to new heights with a serving of Chinese five-spice roasted duck or bacon-wrapped chicken skewers!
