Expert review
Billowing aromas of pink florals, white rose, red and dark berries, cocoa, freshly churned soil, truffle and cedar. In the mouth it's intense and powerful in flavour, but so fine and fresh. There's earthiness, minerality and fruit in abundance, held within firm fine tannins and beautifully balanced acidity. So elegant. Though drinking beautifully now, this will age for decades and continue to grow in complexity and personality.

Pinot noir (French: [pino nwaʁ]) is a red-wine grape variety whose name roughly translates to describe the tight clusters of a pine cone. Its home is France's Burgundy region, particularly Côte-d'Or.
