Payne’s Rise Mr Jed Pinot Noir 2023

Fragrant and lifted, with floral notes leading into an appealing spectrum of crunchy cranberries and red currants, layered with the sweetness of fresh strawberries and cherries, and lifted by a punch of cloves and pink peppercorn. Medium-bodied, it fills the centre of the palate with a purposeful burst of fruit, while fine-grained tannins frame the flavours and add a subtle savoury edge. Not too fruity, not too savoury — just the right balance of both, making this Pinot a multidimensional sensory delight.
