Auntsfield Single Vineyard Pinot Noir 2017
This is a massively (and impressively) rich wine with the seductive flavours of black plum, black cherry, a hint of smokiness with a nice touch of cranberry-like acidity and spice in the incredibly long finish.
The depth of the flavours are enhanced by touches of sweet liquorice and fresh, juicy acidity resulting in a wine with a delightfully rich texture all hanging from a perfectly balanced tannin backbone. A super delicious wine that can wear its modest price tag with pride.
