Class, elegance and dangerously silky, what a superb and precise Pinot Noir from Tapanappa.
A wine that is measured with a terrific line of detail from a cool and low-yielding vintage, the longer it sits in the glass, the more it reveals its secrets. It opens with scents of orange peel, dark cherries and dried strawberries that flow onto an expressive palate. Dark chocolate, mushroom compost, porcine mushroom, twigs, pine needles and tea tree continue to add effortless layers of interest. Woodsy and exotic spices reach out on an elongated finish. The balance, weight and presence deserve nothing but applause.
