Other Reviews…..
A mix of a number of pinot noir clones (MV6, 115, D4V2, 777, Abel, 667 and 521) off the Holm Oak estate, destemmed, wild ferment, matured for nine months in French oak, 25% new. Characters of dark cherry, wild strawberry and raspberry with hints of dried shiitake, pomegranate, five-spice, tobacco, iced tea, leaf litter, dried wildflowers and earth. Lots of detail, plenty of briny drive and a fan of raspberry and spice on the exit. Drink by 2035.
