Description

  • Toasty oak
  • Dark berry & cherry
  • Truffle & cedar
  • Voluptuous tannins

"Stylish and engaging, the gorgeously expressed bouquet shows dark berry intensity with seductive notes of truffle, smoked game, dried herb and cedar. It is concentrated and beautifully weighted on the palate, while remaining elegant and poised. A splendidly complex and refined Pinot. At its best: now to 2023" Sam Kim, Wine Orbit, Mar 2019

Dark rich cherry & forest fruit dominate on the nose with a hint of warm toasty oak. The colour is deep with a bright purple hue. The rich voluptuous tannins coat the palate with a very long finish.

This Mystery Pinot Noir is made from low cropping vines. Produced using only traditional methods, with minimal winemaking input. The wine is unfined & unfiltered to capture the true essence of elusive Pinot Noir grape.

Hand harvested in the cool of the morning, this parcel was gently processed into small vats with one week’s cold soak prior to fermenting. Fermented using selected & indigenous yeasts. Post fermentation, this wine was gently pressed to barrel. 80% were new and 20% were one-year old barriques. This allowed natural MLF fermentation to occur in the barrel.

I can't help re-ordering this wine again and again. Outstanding value for a Premium Pinot Noir.

It is a very good wine from an under-rated region for Pinot Noir.
