Sailor Seeks Horse Pinot Noir 2020

A superb pinot – displays a delicate balance between red and dark fruits, high-toned aromatics, layered depth and verve. 2020 was a tiny vintage at Sailor Seeks Horse in the Huon Valley, yielding just 2 t/ha. But the long, cool growing season has produced wonderful Chardonnay and Pinot Noir. Wines of elegance and finesse; structure and complexity. And very limited.

“We feel our 2020s display the characters of a cooler harvest and tiny yields. Intensity, purity and delicacy. With the cooler year we held back on using whole bunch as the fruit had naturally delicate florals. Very gentle plunging and extended time on skins post-ferment enabled the silky, supple tannins to be extracted and the full year on lees allowed the wine to find itself.” Gilli and Paul Lipscombe, Sailor Seeks Horse
