2019 The Flying Winemaker Pinot Noir
Regular price $29.00
Tasting Notes
Red, pale hue. The nose is bright and fresh with cherry and plum notes, smoky toast and dried herbs. The palate is dense with red fruits and cherry notes. Subtle oak gives weight to the mid-palate and the wine finishes with soft tannins.
92 Points | "Youthfully charming and beautifully fragrant, showing sweet plum, dark cherry, thyme, warm spice and floral aromas on the nose. It's equally appealing on the palate with elegant weight and silky mouthfeel, well supported by fine polished tannins, finishing long and juicy. At its best now to 2025." - Sam Kim, Wine Orbit
Winemaker's Notes
60% contract fruit from Cottier vineyard, the remainder is sourced from Gladstone Vineyard. Blocks and parcels were fermented separately in 1 and 2 tonne fermenters, pressed to barrel and completed natural malo. Sulphured in Feb 2020, and blended at the end of March.
