  • Callum's Corkers Likes this wine: 93 points

    March 12, 2019 - Decanted 3 hrs.

    C....light red, not especially clear.

    N.....lovely dry herbs, a lot of alcohol, savoury, some intensity.

    T....solid Medium body, warm alc, spices, wood. Interesting wine. Nothing near mature though drinking very well, long flavours, some power and essence. Earthy and brambles, some minerals. Tannins are in balance. Feels like it will a lot get better, 93 now but easily 94 on potential.

    VFM? Good.

    September 6, 2017 - Just opened this one - this is evolving very nicely into an elegant, medium-bodied pinot noir. Savory fruit (typical raspberry and cherry, slightly tart, with a touch of earthiness), balanced acidity, fruity and spicy/savory character, a touch of saltiness (we'll see how that complements the grilled salmon tonight!), beautiful ruby red color and just enough tannin and acidity to "keep it honest". Finish lingers nicely with more savory notes and tart raspberry. Lovely!
