A pleasant, easy-drinking Pinot from Punt Road Wines' Airlie Bank range where texture and interest are the focal point.
Super bright crimson greets the eye from the outset. 60% whole bunches drive the savoury profile, think dried leaves, twigs and bark. Dripping with Campari and red cherries early, the fruit slides away a little sooner than expected. Some smokiness, fine spices and those savoury characters take over and drive through long. A handy drink any which way you look at it and one which ticks the value box comfortably.
Drink to three years.
