2022 Holm Oak The Wizard Pinot Noir

Supple and powerful with silky tannins and a long savoury finish.

Semi translucent red to dark red colour with a light red hue. Fragrant red cherry, strawberry and rhubarb aromas mix with some dried herb, brambly earth and spicy cedar notes. Delicious red cherry, strawberry and rhubarb flavours have a supple flow across the palate with notions of bramble, forest floor, dried herbs and spicy cedar lying underneath. Showing excellent power it has silky tannins and a long savoury finish.
Drink over the next 5-6 years.
Alc. 13.5%

Other Reviews……
There's 30% whole bunches in the mix here and it comes across as a more complex, textural wine than the 'house' pinot noir. Some darker cherry in the mix, wild strawberry and raspberry coulis, too, with an understory of spice, amaro herbs, dried citrus rind, gamey tones and a dose of earthiness. It's got a lovely minerally palate presence, tannins powdery and compact, the tail long, slender and lingering with spice, stone and red fruits. Drink by 2036.
