Tight, sinewy and packed in tight. Would love to see this wine with a few years of bottle age. Really not fair to show it after just a year and a half past vintage, but I'm not complaining!

Complex on the palate displaying layers of cherry and plum with earthy flavours of forrest floor and spice. A somewhat masculine and flavourful Pinot but silky smooth tannins. The fruit is balanced well with the 14% ABV as well as good acidity.
UK wine critics Tim Atkin and Jamie Goode scored the 2015 95pts.

2022 - stemmy cherries, minéral, kinda reminds me of Sonoma in that way .
2021 - Apparently a great year, small crop of pinot , more structured / smaller berries / more skin contact *
2019- 77% whole cluster, more full bodied and earthy**

16.5+/20 (90+/100) Вино с ароматами вишни, клубники, красной груши и пломбира. Довольно кислотное и танинное. Танины ещё сухие, вино явно нуждается в выдержке.
