"An impressive wine with oodles of character"
Ontsproten aan de veelgeprezen Lenswood Vineyard, net als de Chardonnay. Een wijn met de onnadrukkelijke charme en subtiele verleidingskunst die zo kenmerkend is voor excellente Pinot Noir.
Met z'n bedwelmende bouquet en zijdezachte fruit een toonbeeld van gratie en schoonheid, maar vergis u niet. Onder die bekoorlijke oppervlakte huist een krachtige kern, een vitale wijn met grip en substantie, voorbestemd om de komende jaren uit te groeien tot iets werkelijk bijzonders.

The type of taut, edgy Pinot Noir the Adelaide Hills has struggled to capture, despite the region being heavily planted to the variety. This is a model of winemaking restraint, allowing the vineyard to shine, with fleshy cherry and a hint of tart mandarin providing comfort, though its firm acidity and stalky grip ensures good structure and svelte line.

From the high Lenswood estate block, 30% whole bunches and the rest whole berries. Matured for 10 months in French puncheons. This wine is so delicate to start that you could miss its genuine class at first. That would be a shame, because what lies beneath is most beguiling and has every chance of awakening into something very, very special over the next few years. Fragrant with violet notes and blueberries, puckered with gentle savoury spice and acidity. And these are just the first layers beginning to unfold. Be patient. Decant for now.

Deepish red colour with a tint of purple at the rim, and a gently funky, vegetal, sulfide-tinged bouquet that suggests whole-bunch and some toasty oak. Although far from a pristine, fruity, aromatic pinot it has mystery and savoury umami complexity as well as depth and weight on the palate. It has the body and structure to go with stronger foods than the many lighter pinots. An impressive wine with oodles of character and plenty of grip, which is great drinking now and would reward cellaring.
