This reserve Pinot Noir from Lenswood in the Adelaide Hills is only released from the best vintages. Fermentation was with wild yeasts and maturation followed for eight months in French oak. Just 1,450 bottles made. Pale crimson in colour, this is down that savoury rabbit hole but done so well. Notes of freshly turned earth, leaf litter, kirsch, red fruits, dried herbs and chinotto. There is no lack of tannins, which are ever-so-slightly gritty at this early stage, but the wine is well balanced. Fresh acidity adds to the energy. There is really good length to this delicious Pinot which will be better in twelve months and then drink superbly over the next four to seven years.
