2017 Curly Flat Pinot Noir
Wine Rating

A pretty light red, the nose has equal impact of quality cool climate fruit and the judicious use of French oak that shows the value of barrel selection. The spectrum of characters show themselves with time in the glass, fruit is in the red to dark cherry range with rhubarb and and array of baking spices giving layers of interest.

This is a wine of both power and finesse. There is depth of fruit and texture that beguiles the vintage yet the wine retains the acidity and delicate lines of tannin that has made 2017 such a beguiling year. Fruits tends to dark cherry and integrates seamlessly with finely filamented spice to finish.

A wine that will impress now and well into the future.
