A very decent Pinot Noir sourced from the Winderlea Vineyard, located right in the very heart of the Dundee Hills AVA, it is fully Biodynamic certified and the company is B Certified as well. The predominant soil and access to the vineyard is volcanic with a south-faced slope, and elevation up to 580ft above sea level. Some of the vines were planted as far back as 1974 utilizing Dijon clones from Burgundy.
Loved the aromatics and some of the complexity layers ranging from dark cherry fruit, floral notes and a mix of spices.
The acidity on the palate is bight, vivacious and concours with the nose on the dark cherries, blackberries and the array of spices. Pleased with the structure and mouthfeel, some subtle touch of herbs and nicely balanced. Feel youthful and fresh. Small production. Nice to cellar it. Cheers! — 8 days ago
