Description
"Our love affair with the Henty wine region continues to flourish with the introduction of the JD Pinot Noir. We have always held this cool climate region in high esteem for the quality of fruit that goes into our Sparkling wine program. But in recent years as the climate warms, we have seen some great character in the Pinot Noir fruit from Jack and Lois Doevan’s vineyard and rather than pick it all early for sparkling wine we have decided to make a ‘nothing spared’ Pinot Noir. The wine is a beguiling combination of ripe white cherries and cranberries with an earthy undertone, finishing with lingering acidity and sappy fine tannins. Everything I look for in a cool climate Pinot Noir!
Intensely aromatic, this wine provides surprising richness balanced with fresh acidity typical of Henty. On the palate there are generous red fruits, baking spice and refined tannins. A wine to enjoy now or cellar and enjoy at a later date." - Producer Notes
