The 2024 Mrs Q Adelaide Hills Pinot Noir is a bright, expressive cool-climate Pinot Noir that combines vibrant fruit with gentle savoury complexity.
Pale to medium garnet in colour with brilliant clarity. The nose is fragrant and inviting, offering aromas of ripe red cherry, wild strawberry and orange peel, intertwined with rosemary, five spice and a touch of cinnamon. Delicate savoury nuances of forest floor, light game and toasted nuts add further depth and complexity.
On the palate, the wine is silky and medium-bodied, with juicy cherry and strawberry fruit framed by subtle savoury notes and well-integrated oak. Hints of cedar and baking spice emerge through the long, elegant finish, while fresh acidity keeps the wine vibrant, balanced and highly drinkable. Fine tannins provide a gentle structure, making it approachable now while rewarding short-term cellaring over the next 3–5 years.
Ben’s Recommendation: At Wine More Cellars, this is a fantastic everyday Pinot Noir for customers who enjoy elegant, fruit-driven reds with a smooth finish and plenty of finesse. Perfect for relaxed dinners or casual entertaining. Best enjoyed now or over the next 3–5 years. Ideal with roast chicken, duck, grilled salmon, mushroom risotto, pork dishes or a charcuterie board.
