Note di degustazione
Pale garnet. Quite heady nose. And some freshness on the palate as well as a heck of a lot of sweetness. Actually, this reminds me of nothing more than a Gredos Garnacha! The granite texture… I like it though possibly not ideal as a direct alternative to red burgundy. (JR)

The 2018 Pinot Noir is a terrific introduction to the Felton Road style, and it's a fine representation of the Bannockburn subregion. It offers up attractive sous-bois/mushroomy notes backed by plenty of red berries and hints of thyme and tea leaves. Medium-bodied, supple and fleshy on the palate, it finishes with ample verve and length, despite 2018 having been a year of record warmth.
Organic and biodynamic. Subtle rocky/mineral dark-red fruit. Taut and elegant on the palate. Intensity without weight, sweet fruit without sweetness. Long and super-fine tannins. (JH)
Such attractive, mouthwatering aromas of spicy and brambly red cherries. This is in very seductive form in 2018 with supple, smooth and gently creamy, red-cherry and raspberry flavors, delivered in a silky, elegant and smooth mode. Fresh, lithe finish. Drink now. Screw cap.
