Peppertree Limited Release Orange Pinot Noir 2019

The Orange region continues to cement a reputation for fine quality, cooler climate varieties, not least with Pinot Noir. This example, from Peppertree’s Limited Release range, is a classic and elegant style. Bright garnet in colour, it is beautifully aromatic. There seems a hint of oak but integration has ensured balance. We have notes of strawberries, chocolate, cherries, dry herbs and tobacco leaves. A refined and attractive Pinot with linear focus and very fine, if slightly drying, tannins plus good length and intensity which is maintained throughout.
