’18 MOUNT MICHAEL PINOT NOIR
$42.00 – $504.00The 2018 Mount Michael Pinot Noir was hand harvested from a single Bannockburn site. The hotter than usual 2018 vintage led to an early picking of the fruit. Winemaking was very gentle, with a shorter time on skins and minimal additions has led to a wine of real purity and great intensity.
“Sweetly fruited and beautifully fragrant on the nose showing dark cherry, vanilla, hazelnut, olive and subtle spice aromas, leading to a succulent palate that’s delightfully weighted and velvety. It’s flavoursome and lingering with ripe fruit flavours with elegant savoury nuances, making it delectably appealing”
94/5* Sam Kim – Wine Orbit.Made in tiny quantities and aged for 11 months in French oak, this wine is drinking beautifully now but you will be rewarded with further cellaring. Drink now though to 2028
