2018 Felton Road Cornish Point Pinot Noir

This wine was aged for 13 months in 30% new French oak barrels sourced from Burgundian coopers. Semi translucent dark red colour with black tinged edges and a bright red hue. Springing from the glass are perfumed scents of dark cherries, strawberries and plum that have a violet overlay with light anise, forest floor, spicy cedar and fresh herb notes ensuing. Rich, deep and expansive with a velvety feel yet light and agile across the palate, mouthfilling flavours of ripe dark cherries, strawberries and spicy plum overlay lightly toasted cedar, anise, forest floor and dried herb characters. Delicious and exceptionally long with silky smooth, perfectly integrated tannins it concludes with a powerful, supplely textured aftertaste.
Drink over the next 5-6 years.
