Description
This light-bodied, dry Pinot Noir comes from a select block rooted in the iron-rich Jory soils of Dundee Hills. Medium acidity lifts layers of ripe cherry and raspberry, while notes of vanilla, clove, and cola add depth and complexity. Hints of toasted almond and licorice round out the profile, leading to a smooth, elegant finish. A focused expression of terroir that balances vibrancy with finesse.
On the nose, savory, an herbaceous aroma of steeped raspberry leaf tea finishes with a gentle lift of freshly sliced blood oranges. The bright, zesty blood orange translates to the palette with subtle citrus undertones. Acidity offers a refreshing counterpoint to the fruit, with amaro-like earthiness and botanical spices.
