Critical Acclaim:

  • Christian Eedes (Winemag.co.za): 94 points – A balanced wine offering both depth and liveliness. The nose presents red and black berries, along with intriguing notes of musk, mushroom, and white pepper. The palate shows well-defined fruit, bright acidity, and fine tannins.
  • Tim Atkin MW: 95 points – This “succulent” and “intensely floral” Pinot Noir offers a complex profile with subtle reduction, hints of salami, and stylish oak influence. Flavors of plum and black cherry linger on the finish. Enjoy between 2025 and 2032.
