Top of the Paringa Pinot tree and everything steps up a notch; structure, fruit concentration and tannins, adding to the wine’s overall ageing potential. Dusty beets, earth, dark chocolate, black cherry and cedary toasty oak light up the aroma. Solid, well-built and coiled, it does a slow reveal delivering layers of red and dark fruits, earth, dark roasted spices, savoury tapenade and roasting pan juices. Crushed herbs build on the middle palate and gain momentum closing with leafy green characters on the finish. Well positioned for a bright and long future.
