Palliser Estate Pinot Noir 2019

The winery writes "Medium-full bodied in weight, the wine treads lightly despite its formidable fruit concentration and ageing potential. Finely rendered tannins and plush cherry fruit deliver both sumptuousness and structure, a fine dusting of French oak showcasing the floral and dried herb nuances on the complex palate. A serious and stylish Pinot Noir from one of the finest vintages we’ve ever experienced, this is a classic Palliser Pinot from day one."

Cameron Douglas writes "Very enticing bouquet with a captivating core of pinosity - fruit aromas of sweet red plum and dark red very ripe cherry, scents of sweet violet and rose then a silty, fine gravel soil minerality. The aromas of barrel spices are abundant too with clove and roasted vanilla pod. A dry wine with fruit and oak flavours that mirror the nose contrasted by an abundance of fine tannins, medium+ acidity, noticeable concentration and length. Well made and ready to imbibe from today and through 2026+."
