Riposte The Sabre Pinot Noir 2022

Share

A mix of Lenswood and Piccadilly vineyards, this Pinot Noir iteration sits at the peak of the Riposte tiered Pinot range, showing quite a bit more depth and interest than its siblings. This has floral, darker rose petal notes, and colour to match, black cherry flavours to follow with roasted spice and a decent feel of black pepper. The palate remains juicy and well-rounded, the pepper echoing down the line, with tannins gently expressed. A wine with sophistication and finesse through and through.
