Two Paddocks

Two Paddocks 'The Fusilier' Bannockburn Vineyard Pinot Noir 2014
A very familiar bouquet of established vines, soil and the sense of place that is Bannockburn; soft undulating aromas of light red fruits gently spiced with smoky oak tones and a particular gun mental steely moment that can only come from established well cared for vines and instinctive wine making; deeply complex if you take the time to look. On the palate - ripe, red fruit flavors favoring dark cherry and plum pit; a light savory tone adds complexity with a softer wild herb moment; attractive mineral underscore; medium youthful tannins, ripe medium+ acidity; just enough new oak to notice and lengthy finish.
94 Points
