Mayfield Mrs Crawford Orange Pinot Noir

The high altitude vineyards in the Orange region in New South Wales enable quality Pinot Noir to be grown. This wine is compelling evidence of that. There is a pale crimson colour here and a nose with hints of strawberries, spices, a touch of undergrowth, red cherries and the merest nod to vanillin influences. A touch of truffles as well. A silky texture and excellent length, which maintains intensity for the full journey, the wine is exquisitely balanced. A really impressive local Pinot to enjoy for at least the forthcoming six years.
