Apricus Hill Denmark Pinot Noir 2024

Pinot Noir from the Denmark sub-region in the Great Southern district in Western Australia, is not one’s first thought when it comes to wines from there, but there is no doubt that the wines have been impressing more and more in recent years. From a single vineyard, maturation was for ten months in a mix of new and older French oak and the wine was bottled unfined and unfiltered. A gleaming crimson hue, there are savoury notes here. On the nose, we have aromas weaving through cherries, mushrooms, raspberries, warm earth and bay leaves. A fine line of acidity runs the length through to sleek tannins. This is a juicy style with decent length. Enjoy it over the next four to six years.
