Note di degustazione
Made with grapes coming from a 15 year old vineyard in the Brancott Valley, just down the road from Clayvin, that is planted mainly with 777, 115 and 667 clones, the medium to deep ruby-purple colored 2012 Pinot Noir reveals aromas of red currants, black cherries and raspberry leaves with some loamy characters plus hints of roses and black tea. The concentrated, medium-bodied palate has a great savory fruit character supported by firm, grainy tannins through the long,earthy finish. It is very taut and needs time.

Floral scents, relatively light and fresh. Marked acidity and something to chew on but a tad oaky. (JR)
Bright medium red. Musky aromas of blackberry, strawberry, spices and flinty minerals. Dense, chewy and concentrated but a bit youthfully aggressive, with a serious tannic spine giving the finish a slight dry edge. This will need time in bottle to burn off some of its baby fat and absorb its dusty tannins. But there's very good material here.
