“Such a beautiful and complex pinot with ripe strawberry aromas and hints of vanilla and toast. It has plenty of character, yet it remains vivid and focused. It’s medium- to full-bodied. Linear tannins frame it nicely and give it length and energy. Drinkable now, but better in two or three years.” – James Suckling
Tasting Note: Luscious flavours of ripe strawberries and cherries with hints of dark chocolate and pinecones. Spicy, with well-rounded, silky tannins. Ripe red fruit flavours obtain complexity from hints of savoury characters, cinnamon and Rosemary. Cellar 8 to 15 years.
