Rowlee Single Vineyard Pinot Noir 2022

Eye catching from the first glance of that iridescent, deep cherry pink colour. Brings an immediacy to the glass, fragrant and fresh. The power of the fruit stands tall. Cherry, cranberry, raspberry mix with attractive violet florals and cinnamon bark. Moves into second gear on the palate exploring tastes of the soil, earthiness and bracken mingling with the spice and cherry berry red fruits. A lick of vanillin oak makes its appearance and, with it, some nice warm and textural notes. All up, quite a stylish Pinot. The biggest red grape planted in the Orange region is Shiraz followed by Cabernet Sauvignon, but let’s also hear it for Pinot Noir.
