| TASTING NOTE: This is a wild fermented and barrel aged Pinot Noir sourced from both of Westcott's sites, that sees 22 months in older French oak barriques. It shows good colour in the glass considering the vintage and has an intense nose of brambly red berries, earthy/spicy notes, a touch of anise, violets and subtle spice notes. It's rich and savoury on the palate with ripe tannins, a touch of cedar and a melange of dark cherries, black raspberries, cassis, spice and a lifted, vibrant finish. Can cellar through 2032.
