"It sees only 5% new oak and is "made to drink young but will certainly improve with bottle age for the next 4 to 5 years". I'd reckon so. It's a herbal, twiggy style of pinot but there's plenty of (varietal) fruit depth too. Neither complexity nor power are in question. It tastes of dark plums, mint, various twigs and herbs, sour cherries and general impression of woody spice. In short, it's savoury, and accordingly should develop well over the short to medium term " and perhaps longer."

"Noirien is Scorpo's earlier drinking pinot style, with just 5% new oak and bottled early to emphasise its juicy fruit character. The result is a beautifully fruit-focused pinot noir, succulent and approachable, yet in no way sweet, capturing dark berries, mixed spice and savoury beetroot notes with confidence and precision. Lovely accents of spice, dried bay leaves, black cherries and berry compote confirm classic Mornington dark berry fruit intensity, finishing long and finely structured, with tangy acidity."
