Eastern Peake Griffins Road Pinot Noir 2022

High toned aromatics of sweet and tangy red fruits, savoury spice and sandalwood. The intensity of fruit is mind boggling when you consider the wine’s prettiness and elegance. Pure and mineral, with Serrano and a Amaro/blood orange note on the back palate. Linear in shape, the fruit, tannin and acid finely woven together, harmonising beautifully with gentle tightness. Absolutely controlled and nothing out of place. A sense of effortlessness, the vineyard’s quality (and the winemaker’s) very much apparent. Very long, persistent and the sleeper of the range. Decades ahead of it. Waters Wine Co
