Clarence House Reserve Pinot Noir 2020

95 POINTS

Tyson Stelzer - Halliday's Wine Companion

Estate vineyard, Coal River Valley. Wild-yeast fermentation with no whole bunches. Matured 10 months in 15% new French oak puncheons. Judicious fruit selection elevates Clarence House's Reserve to greater depth and length of black-fruit presence. Black cherries and blackberries are brushed with white pepper and beetroot. Anna Pooley's wizardry in the winery intricately marries fine-grained tannins and bright acidity on a long finish. Elegance meets class in a deliciously age-worthy package.
