Note di degustazione
Tasted blind. Attractive stem and vegetal notes with bright red fruit and plenty of dark, almost bitter, cherry fruit. Fine tannin, crisp acid, finishing with a gentle floral note. Modern fruit, classic styling, and the whole-bunch stemminess is always in the background. (RH)

Riffing off the same playbook as the excellent 2020 Pinot Noir, this 2021 Pinot Noir is fine, floral, mineral, structured and if possible, a little more structured and perfect than the 2020. It captures a ductile flow of tannin that shapes the fruit, capturing a glistening display of perfectly ripe, restrained fruit. Together, it makes for a polished, scintillating wine. Exceptional.
I love the transparent, floral nose of this beautifully crafted and extremely fresh Tasmanian pinot noir. Fantastic interplay of mineral acidity with fresh black cherry and ripe strawberry fruit on the super-elegant palate. Long, silky and citrusy finish. From the Coal River Valley sub-region of Tasmania. Drink or hold. Screw cap.
50% whole-bunch fermentation. Bottled January 2022. Healthy mid crimson. Complex, layered, approachable nose. Smooth and lively and so much more approachable than young red burgundy. Maybe not as concentrated as 2020. Long. (JR)
