Notes
Harvest 2022 threw just about everything at us to challenge even the most seasoned grower. From a cool, damp flowering period, beautiful hot January followed by super wet February, huge disease pressure all round ect. Fortunately from the beginning of March onward, the fine weather returned and stayed. While yields were down on average, the fruit that was harvested was in the main very good and we're looking forward to some great wine. Juicy cherry-berry aromas with hints of cedar and white pepper on the nose. The palate is smooth and full bodied with ripe earthy, black berry flavours and lingering soft tannins. Perfect now through to 2030.
Food Pairing
This elegant Pinot Noir is delicious served with duck, salmon or aged cheese.
Cellar
This beautifully crafted, full bodied Pinot Noir is gorgeous now but deserves some time. Now until 2030+
Reviews & Awards
Excellent - Cameron Douglas Master Sommelier 2023
By Cameron Douglas
A very enticing bouquet indeed, aromas dark cherry and Doris plum skin, the layer of baking spices and mild toasty barrel add complexity and depth. Youth and power, some perfume and mineral earth qualities. An abundance of fine tannins works in harmony with acidity to deliver a velvet texture and crisp youthful mouthfeel contrast the core of red berry fruit flavours. A young wine with drink now and cellar attributes - you decide. Best drinking from late 2024 through 2029.
5 Stars - Sam Kim, Wine Orbit 2023
By Sam Kim
Splendidly ripe and fragrant, the bouquet shows dark plum, blueberry, cedar and warm spice aromas, leading to a wonderfully weighted palate offering fleshy texture and rounded tannins, finishing long and velvety. At its best: now to 2030
