"Bright, medium-full crimson colour, purple-tinted, with lovely purity of ripe cherry aromas, the fruit doing all the talking. Traces of spices and balsamic herbs. A fruit-sweet core with ample tannins surrounding it, adding structure and length. Impressive pinot, which is fresh and youthful and promises a bright future." - Real Review
"Cherry, strawberry, a little spice, floral and autumnal, with a subtle mint top note. It’s medium-bodied, red fruits and spice, with light cedar oak, fine pumice stone tannin, cool acidity, and a juicy strawberry finish of precision and fine length. A quiet confidence here, never trying too hard, and all about delicacy and restraint. Lovely wine." - Wine Front
"Low crops and small bunches have resulted in intensely concentrated fruit flavours and fine velvet tannins for the 2022 Pinot Noir. Cherry, strawberries and black berry flavours dominate with more subtle savoury tones and exotic fruits coming through on the back palate. Fine grain tannins and well defined structure carry the fruit sweetness well with great length.
Each clone on our single vineyard site was picked separately when they individually reach optimal ripeness. Hand-picked fruit was destemmed without crushing and elevated into small open fermenters. The whole berry must was left to cold soak for 2-3 days before beginning fermentation. Fermentation temperatures peaked at around 32°C and during fermentation the cap was plunged up to 2 times per day. After fermentation was complete, the must was gently pressed and transferred into French Oak puncheons (21% new, 14% second use, 21% third use and 43% older) where MLF occurred before winter. The wine was left to mature in oak on lees before being bottled." - Dexter
