A beautiful perfume - red cherries and loam. Obviously a new world Pinot Noir but a very good one. Light to medium weight but with M plus intensity on the palate which had a lovely inner mouth perfume with violet nuances. Previous notes from February 2019 but I enjoyed it more this time. Probably have the last one in the next year or two. From the MV6 clone 100% destemmed according to the winemaker notes. Tasted 27 weeks later on 5th May 2022 with similar notes with red berry and cherry fruits and Sous Bois. A wonderful perfume and excellent value.

A good Mornington Peninsula Pinot Noir. An earthy nose with Root Vegetables - more Beetroot than Rhubarb - some stemmy notes. Sweet red berry flavours on the palate however not enough complexity for age, region and price.
