95 / 100"Quite pale in colour and restrained in aroma; strawberry, redcurrant, clove, floral but also slightly gamey. On the palate it sings- red fruits, blood orange, hint of cedar and cinnamon oak and a razor line of cool-climate acidity. Does the job very nicely."

"The inaugural release and it’s a very pretty wine. A pale ruby hue with delicate aromatics of red cherries and woodsy spices, Campari and a waft of what smells like whole-bunch aromatics. It also has that distinct Adelaide Hills spearmint note, working well as a seasoning. The palate is lighter framed, with fine tannins and a juiciness throughout. This is the type of pinot that is well-suited to warmer weather, so don’t be afraid to give it a slight chill. A lovely drink."

Tasting Notes
Very elegant and pale in colour, slight garnet coming through, started on nose a little confectionary but has some great gamey, white florals, clove, white ground pepper, sanguine. A wonderful expression of Adelaide Hills Pinot Noir!
High, well balanced acid line which all premium pinot should have! Saline backbone, regular suspects in red fruits with some, blood orange, hint of caramel. Quite well integrated and a long length. Exquisite!.
