🍷 Appearance
• Medium-light to vibrant red colour typical of quality Pinot Noir — elegant and bright.
👃 Aromas / Nose
• Red fruits up front — wild strawberries, red currants and bright cherry aromatics hint at juicy fruit character.
• Subtle herbal / earthy undertones and spice add complexity.
👄 Palate / Flavour
• The palate is velvety and medium-bodied, with smooth red fruit flavours continuing from the bouquet.
• Fine tannins and balanced acidity give structure and length, with a touch of lively spice on the finish.
• French oak influence (if present) integrates gently, adding subtle savoury richness without overpowering the fruit.
🍷 Style & Potential
• This Pinot Noir combines fresh, bright fruit with savory complexity — a good expression of Mount Barker Pinot.
• Styles can vary slightly by vintage, with some showing deeper cherry and plum flavours or more earth and herbal notes.
• Acclaimed recent vintages have earned strong critic scores and show good cellaring potential if desired.
Typical flavour profile summary: wild strawberry, red currant and cherry fruit → herbal/earthy nuance → fine tannins → lively spice finish.
