Upon release this wine is just starting to show the first signs of development. The nose is extremely varietal with cherry plum notes complemented by woody spice, truffle and subtle charred sticks. This charred character is not from oak but rather has evolved through the early stages of maturation of the wine. One would almost expect slightly more opulence on the palate given the depth and complexity on the nose, but the palate in contrast is quite slender and lively. Elegant, mineral and almost tense acidity, paired with fine pithy tannins and a sour cherry and strawberry fruit character gives an overall perception of freshness and refinement. Classic Adelaide Hills Pinot Noir.
