Coldstream Hills Reserve Pinot Noir 2022 [JH 97]

Cellar Door Price 85 aud.

All estate fruit, including the Amphitheatre A and G blocks; 15% whole bunches and matured in French barriques (57% new). A bright, deep-ish crimson. With its aromas of black cherries, violets, brown spices and a touch of freshly hung meat, there's lots going on in this compelling wine. The palate is brooding and structured and while you'd no doubt enjoy this now with some food, the best is at least four to six years away, if not longer. Worth every cent. Drink: 2025 - 2035; Price: $85.00; Date Tasted: December 2023; Alcohol: 13.5%; Rating: 97 Points & Special Value Star; James Halliday Wine Companion.
