Fine, structured and silky with beautifully tuned tannins.
The finish is long and detailed, showing red fruit, spice and a gentle earthy/chalky edge with impressive persistence.

A refined and slightly savoury Margaret River Pinot Noir—medium-bodied, perfumed and complex.
Leans toward a more structured, nuanced style with both fruit purity and earthy depth, offering immediate appeal and excellent cellaring potential.
