Tasting Notes

Cradle Coast pinot noir matured in French oak for 11 months. Funky struck flint and matchy reductive notes flutter above the ripe red/dark cherry, wild strawberry and dark plum fruits. Hints of exotic spice, forest floor, citrus rind, pomegranate, cherry conserve, amaro herbs and earth. Smoked meats and mountain herbs join in on the palate, along with a briny, mineral line of acidity and sour cherry on the tail. 92pts - Dave Brookes for The Halliday Wine Companion
