2015 Williams Crossing Pinot Noir

There is incredible value on show here with this sub $30 Pinot Noir showing up a number of wines that are much more expensive. The highlight of the wine is the generosity and purity of fruit, with a thread of acidity that keeps the wine flowing and accentuates fruit and oak inputs.

A light to medium red in the glass with good clarity, the nose benefits from the ripeness that was achieved in 2015 with baked rhubarb and dark cherry cut through by a swatch of cinnamon spice.

The palate is elegant with spice and tannin melding together to give a lovely structure for the fleshier red fruits to show themselves. The finish is generous but has a fine savoury texture that gives both complexity and underwrites future development.
