Pinot Noir
Description
Dark crimson hue. Deep brooding nose of plums, blue fruits, rose petals and dried herbs with lifted floral spicy notes. A full-bodied Pinot Noir with ripe plums, liquorice and dried herb flavours, mouth-filling silky texture and round plush tannins giving the wine weight and power that lingers on the palate with a savoury, moreish finish.
