The 2024 Santolin Little Saint Pinot Noir is a bright and approachable cool-climate Pinot Noir from Victoria, crafted in a fresh, fruit-driven style. Lifted aromas of wild strawberry, red cherry and raspberry are complemented by delicate floral notes, subtle spice and a touch of earthy complexity, creating an elegant expression of this classic variety.
On the palate, it is light to medium-bodied with silky tannins, vibrant natural acidity and a smooth, supple texture. Juicy red berry flavours are layered with hints of cranberry, forest floor and gentle spice, leading to a clean, savoury finish with excellent balance and freshness. Minimal oak influence allows the purity of the fruit and the wine's lively character to shine through.
Ben's Recommendation: At Wine More Cellars, the 2024 Santolin Little Saint Pinot Noir is a fantastic everyday Pinot Noir for those who enjoy bright red fruit, fine tannins and an elegant cool-climate style. It pairs beautifully with roast chicken, grilled salmon, duck breast, mushroom risotto or a charcuterie platter. Best enjoyed over the next 3–5 years while its vibrant fruit and silky texture are at their peak.
