Cox Family Wines Tumbarumba Pinot Noir 2024

The fruit here is from the Coppabella vineyard, which sits at 600 metres above sea level, in the Tumbarumba region (those not familiar, think Snowy Mountains). Three days cold soaking and then a week with a warm ferment, with six months on lees to follow has all combined to present a fine Pinot which will provide much pleasure. Bright crimson in colour, this has lovely lifted aromas with notes of cherries, raspberries and hints of coffee grinds. There are also hints of woodsmoke here, or an undergrowth note, if you prefer. There is good balance and already evidence of a touch of complexity. A wine of focus, medium length, juicy acidity and fine tannins. Enjoy this over the next four to six years.
