The nose is immediately earthy with red fruit enveloping the cedar, mushroom, and earthy loam; with a subtle floral finish. The palate is layered with flavours of tart cherry and raspberry with persistent acidity driving the finish. The earthiness is reminiscent of previous vintages, a characteristic that we now regard as a hallmark of this Burn Cottage site. The palate is generous and dynamic with fine tannin and great length. This Pinot Noir is refreshingly taut and fresh at release and will continue to evolve for 12+ years.
