Delightful deep crimson, blood red hue; the aroma has an array of scents: red cherries, baked beetroot, some undergrowth and stem notes along with rose hip tea adding greater interest and complexity; the palate has bright sweet red fruits, fine grain tannin with a gentle infusion of oak lifting the textural palate without imposing itself other than as a guiding influence. A delicious, stylish and deeply satisfying pinot that will age well over the next 5-8 years.
The Real Review
Medium ruby garnet, this hints as a meatier type of pinot, with concentrated aromas of baked rhubarb crumble and cherry compote, and hints of forest floor alongside smoky charcuterie and light cedar oak. Light-bodied but with everything in the right place: silky fruit weight balanced by bright acidity and a dusty, savoury amaro tannin grip at the end. Lovely now and sure to improve over the next few years
