98 / 100"Gorgeous aromas of fresh flowers, ripe strawberries and tangerine blossoms. Medium bodied with a lovely balance of fruit and acidity and creamy texture that is open and cashmere-like in texture. Wonderful finish. A triumph. A joy to drink. Drink or hold."

Tasting Notes
Crafted to express the unique terroir of Terra Sancta Estate on Felton Road in Bannockburn. This Pinot Noir is as quality, layered and beautiful as the place it is from. Reflecting the aspect, soil type, vine age and microclimate of each block of the Estate, Pinot Noir of the highest quality consistently delivers a core of dark fruit, earthy beetroot, exotic spices and silky texture. Carefully crafted and minimally made using wild fermentation and subtle French oak, this is a gorgeous Pinot Noir.
