Paracombe Plateau Adelaide Hills Pinot Noir 2021

From an Adelaide Hills vineyard planted back in 1983, which sits on a plateau which is 1.7 billion years old. The fermentation was a mix of whole bunches and whole berries with prior cold soaking. Subsequently, the wine spent two years in French oak. Only 54 cases made. The colour is a crimson garnet. This is very much a savoury style of Pinot, with sappy and briary notes. We have undergrowth and red fruit characters, especially cherries, with a touch of leather and earth. With supple texture and a seamless structure, the wine is of medium length while young, bright and with fine and fresh acidity. Enjoy this now and over the next three to four years.
