Vintage Assessments Tasting Note |
Producer |
LEANING POST |
Medium-deep pale red colour. Very attractive, gently complex, floral, violet-rose-tinged nose with ripe, plummy, wild strawberry notes with a touch of earth and cedar. Dry, medium bodied, bright, fresh, ripe, plum-strawberry flavours with a lingering, harmonious, bright, well balanced finish. Showing very well now with fine mouthfeel as a result of being unfiltered. It was aged for 15 months in French oak and has 12.5% alcohol and under 2 g/L residual sugar with lot number 2022115 on the lower part of the glass bottle. Only 450 Cases produced. |

TASTING NOTE: An open and inviting pinot noir with great depth of flavour despite a lighter mouthfeel. Tannins contribute a modicum of grip and texture on the expansive palate that offers both fresh and dried cherry fruit, wildflower, tilled earth, iron, and very delicate wood spice. Some signs of maturity are beginning to set in and a touch of acetic acid is noted. Yet there is still tang and energy on the palate along with memorable length. Best now to 2025. Tasted September 2023. Score - 90 (Sara d'Amato, winealign.com) |
