Dry River Pinot Noir 1.5L 2012

"Allocation only, email [email protected] to secure allocation"

Winemaker's Note Upon release in 2013, this was wine "shy, closed and rigid", showing mostly red berry fruits with a luminous elegance. Now, in 2022, the evolution is remarkable but still fresh with no sign of tiredness yet. The nose is consumed with ripe berry fruit edging into a compote of rosehip, strawberries, rhubarb, and plums. With the fruitfulness waning, the tannins can be detected on the nose as a tree bark scent. Also, other tertiary characters can be found like salty liquorice, heated brown cardamom and thyme. The wine roams over the palate without many constraints. The tannins have amalgamated within the wine and are seamlessly aligned with only a few still out of line, slowing the wine’s movement down the palate. They are not the focal point anymore, rather the buoyancy and weight of the fruit is. Dark fruit is showing predominantly at the front and mid with acidity still keeping freshness at the finish.
