Yering Station Laura Barnes Pinot Noir 2021

Such an elegant and accomplished Pinot Noir. My original score was in the early-90s, but I kept going back to the glass, and couldn’t resist. And as I returned, the score kept going up. There is so much to enjoy in this wine, each mouthful explores and finds something new to what is a lovely Pinot Noir. The mid-red colour looks brilliant in the glass. The aromas are quintessential Yarra Valley with vibrant cherry, rhubarb with a touch of savoury undergrowth and earth. It is both integrated and concentrated to taste with just a touch of tannin attitude – I like that in a Pinot. All the parts are moving in perfect unison leaving something to savour.
