2021 Dalrymple Single Site Estate Pipers River Pinot Noir 750ml
Initial aromas of ripe cherries, black tea and Asian 5 spice lift from the glass and concentrate with opening, with hints of sea spray, cinnamon and cranberries building into the opulence. The palate is classical well defined with a focused entry from the fine natural acidity with a layer of sweet Summer fruit to add balance and texture before a long finish with a lingering note of black cherry and cinnamon spice.
...an expansive, detailed shape to the wine as it swells with dark and red fruits...
95 Points
Pinot noir sourced from the Cottage Block on the Dalrymple Pipers River estate. Aromas of ripe plum, red cherry and dried cranberries underscored by hints of fine spice, red licorice, purple floral tones, leaf litter, mushroom broth and game meats. There is an expansive, detailed shape to the wine as it swells with dark and red fruits before a seam of sapid acidity drives the wine to a sustained finish of spicy red fruits and gamey notes.
Wonderfully fine, silken palate
95 Points
From an unirrigated site, in the protective lee of the hillside, this complex pinot is a little shy at first but opens up in the glass. Darker mulberry fruit mingles with cherry, some subtle clove and white pepper. The wonderfully fine, silken palate has a peppy freshness with spice, chai and graphite pencil complexity. A lovely wine that should begin to peak in five-plus years.
