Gently reductive upon opening (and still now, after 20 minutes in the glass), the 2021 Pinot Noir is savory and spicy with peppercorns, licorice, black cherry and a hint of tapenade. A pleasurable black tea bitterness lingers after the wine has gone. I like it. Elegant. 14% alcohol, sealed under screw cap. Erin Larkin, Robert Parker Wine Advocate

Remarks: Their new Estate Range replaces the Petit Clos – showing vivacity, concentration and brightness, the Estate wines are crafted from both our glacial stones and windblown clay terroirs.
