This young cool-climate Pinot Noir benefits from some decanting to allow the varietal aromas and flavours to unfurl.
Currently displaying vanillin French oak framing, it gradually expresses characteristics of white pepper, mixed dried herbs, cherries and raspberries.
The mid-palate is crisp, brooding and grippy.
This well-priced Cooks Lot 'Allotment 1111' Pinot Noir, whilst currently fresh and youthful, would benefit from some short term cellaring. 85 Points
