Dave Brookes - Halliday Wine Companion

Pinot noir sourced from the Pisa subregion, 100% destemmed, fermented in barrel then matured in French oak, 33% new. An elegant and seductive set of aromas, including pure doris plum, wild strawberry and dark cherry fruits veiled in souk-like spice. Hints of leaf litter, a wisp of struck flint, mountain thyme, pomegranate, peppercorn, nutmeg, vanillin oak, dried shiitake, whiffs of Chinese barbecue and crushed schist. There's a little more nutmeg oak on show on the palate but it just slides in with the pure fruit and the tannins. This is silty fine, with a bright mineral cadence and sense of clarity and grace as it trails off. Cracker!
